CVE-2024-38270
First published: Tue Sep 10 2024(Updated: )
An insufficient entropy vulnerability caused by the improper use of a randomness function with low entropy for web authentication tokens generation exists in the Zyxel GS1900-10HP firmware version V2.80(AAZI.0)C0. This vulnerability could allow a LAN-based attacker a slight chance to gain a valid session token if multiple authenticated sessions are alive.
