Enterasys Vertical Horizon Switches Multiple Vulnerabilities
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
"The <http://www.enterasys.com/> Vertical Horizon VH-2402S2 Fast Ethernet
switch provides 24 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports and two option slots for
expansion, plus a dedicated management slot. "
Enterasys Vertical Horizon switches contain an undocumented user and
several debugging keyboard shortcuts that allow attackers access and
information to and about the switch.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* Vertical Horizon VH-2402S with firmware 02.05.09.07 and prior
Immune Systems:
* Vertical Horizon VH-2402S with firmware 2.05.09.08
An undocumented user "tiger" with a default password "tiger123" allow
unauthorized users to use and gain information about the switches.
There are several debugging keyboard shortcuts of Ctrl-F, Ctrl-B, Ctrl-G
or Ctrl-L when one choose to connect using a serial connection or telnet,
and obtain debug information about the switches. The write commands
available after pressing Ctrl-G can be harmful to the switch - allowing
any valid user including guest user to remotely disable the switch.

debugging shortcuts. The update can be obtained at:
