InfraPower PPS-02-S Q213V1 Hard-coded Credentials Remote Root Access
Vendor: Austin Hughes Electronics Ltd.
Product web page: http://www.austin-hughes.com
Affected version: Q213V1 (Firmware: V2395S)
Fixed version: Q216V3 (Firmware: IPD-02-FW-v03)
Summary: InfraPower Manager PPS-02-S is a FREE built-in GUI of each
IP dongle ( IPD-02-S only ) to remotely monitor the connected PDUs.
Patented IP Dongle provides IP remote access to the PDUs by a true
network IP address chain. Only 1xIP dongle allows access to max. 16
PDUs in daisy chain - which is a highly efficient cient application
for saving not only the IP remote accessories cost, but also the true
IP addresses required on the PDU management.
Desc: InfraPower suffers from a use of hard-coded credentials. The IP
dongle firmware ships with hard-coded accounts that can be used to gain
full system access (root) using the telnet daemon on port 23.
Tested on: Linux 2.6.28 (armv5tel)
lighttpd/1.4.30-devel-1321

SQLite/3.7.10
