Western Digital WD My Cloud v04.05.00-320 devices embed the session token (aka PHPSESSID) in filenames, which makes it easier for attackers to bypass authentication by listing a directory. NOTE: this can be exploited in conjunction with CVE-2018-7171 for remote authentication bypass within a product that uses My Cloud.

Weakness

When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.
