Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-40621 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: WAVLINK WN531G3. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40621/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40621/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40621","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40621/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40621","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8mh6-982p-25hv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WAVLINK router","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can capture hashed passwords via HTTP and perform pass-the-hash attacks to gain unauthorized access to WAVLINK routers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[{"product":"wn531g3_firmware","vendor":"wavlink"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-294","name":"Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay"}],"description":"Because the WAVLINK Quantum D4G (WN531G3) running firmware version M31G3.V5030.200325 and earlier communicates over HTTP and not HTTPS, and because the hashing mechanism does not rely on a server-supplied key, it is possible for an attacker with sufficient network access to capture the hashed password of a logged on user and use it in a classic Pass-the-Hash style attack.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WAVLINK Quantum D4G (WN531G3) Pass-The-Hash","id":"CVE-2022-40621","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WAVLINK Quantum D4G (WN531G3) Session Management by IP Address","id":"CVE-2022-40622"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-40620"},"products":["WN531G3"],"published":"2022-09-13","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"WAVLINK Quantum D4G (WN531G3) Session Management by IP Address","id":"CVE-2022-40622","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"WAVLINK Quantum D4G (WN531G3) CSRF","id":"CVE-2022-40623","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["WAVLINK"]},"summary":"Attackers can capture hashed passwords via HTTP and perform pass-the-hash attacks to gain unauthorized access to WAVLINK routers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40621/"}
