Gladinet CentreStack and Triofox Hard Coded Cryptographic Vulnerability
What this means
This is rated high severity (7.1 out of 10). It is on the known-exploited catalogue, which means attacks using it have already been seen. Ask IT whether Gladinet Centrestack and Gladinet Triofox are in your estate, and treat that as the priority.
Full vendor description
Gladinet CentreStack and Triofox prior to version 16.12.10420.56791 used hardcoded values for their implementation of the AES cryptoscheme. This degrades security for public exposed endpoints that may make use of it and may offer arbitrary local file inclusion when provided a specially crafted request without authentication. This opens the door for future exploitation and can be leveraged with previous vulnerabilities to gain a full system compromise.
Scoring and exploitation
Exploitable over the network without any account, under specific conditions, and no one has to click or open anything. High impact on subsequent confidentiality, subsequent integrity and subsequent availability; low on confidentiality.
