Executive Summary

This vulnerability occurs when the internal webserver is enabled (which is disabled by default). An attacker can trick an administrator who is logged into the dashboard into visiting a malicious website. Due to a misconfiguration in the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) policy, the attacker can then extract information about the running configuration from the dashboard.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to unauthorized disclosure of configuration information from the dashboard if an administrator is tricked into visiting a malicious website. This could potentially expose sensitive configuration details to attackers, although the impact is limited to information disclosure with a low severity score.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, ensure that the internal webserver is disabled if not needed, as it is disabled by default.

Additionally, review and correct the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) policy configuration to prevent unauthorized information extraction from the dashboard.
