Login credentials are inadvertently recorded in logs if a Syslog Server is configured in NETGEAR WAX610 and WAX610Y (AX1800 Dual Band PoE Multi-Gig Insight Managed WiFi 6 Access Points). An user having access to the syslog server can read the logs containing these credentials.
This issue affects WAX610: before 10.8.11.4; WAX610Y: before 10.8.11.4.
Devices managed with Insight get automatic updates. If not, please check the firmware version and update to the latest.
Fixed in:
