Overview
AirSpan Base Station Distribution Units may contain an undocumented telnet server that authenticates via a known password and is enabled by default.
Description
From the AirSpan MicroMax product page: The base station is highly modular in design and is composed of two main components: the all outdoor Base Station Radios (BSR) and the indoor Base Station Distribution Unit (BSDU). Each base station could contain up to 12 BSRs, depending on the amount of available spectrum. Each BSR is connected to the BSDU via a 100BaseT interface operating over a Cat5 cable which carries both data and power. |
Impact
A remote, unauthenticated attacker may be able to log in to an affected device as the root user. |
Solution
Change the default password
