Firmware in KAON PG5298A and PG5298B routers allow an authenticated user to send crafted JSON-RPC requests and perform operations not possible via GUI, e.g. system file read or command execution. This vulnerability has been fixed in firmware version: 3.0.82 for PG5298A and 4.0.82 for PG5298B.
Firmware in KAON PG5298A and PG5298B routers allow an unauthenticated user to query a specific endpoint and acquire sensitive information such as a password to the administrative portal. This vulnerability has been fixed in firmware version: 3.0.82 for PG5298A and 4.0.82 for PG5298B.
The firmware in KAON CG3000TC and CG3000T routers contains hard-coded credentials in clear text (shared across all routers of this model) that an unauthenticated remote attacker could use to execute commands with root privileges. This vulnerability has been fixed in firmware version: 1.00.67 for CG3000TC and 1.00.27 for CG3000T.
A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in Kaon CG3000 1.01.43. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component dhcpcd Command Handler. The manipulation of the argument -h with the input <script>alert('XSS')</script> leads to cross site scripting. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
