Title: Beck IPC GmbH IPC@CHIP TelnetD Account Enumeration Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
The IPC@Chip is a single-chip embedded webserver from Beck GmbH.
The device's inbuilt telnetd service may allow a remote user to confirm names of valid telnet accounts.
Each time a remote user attempts to connect to the telnet service, one of two prompts is issued following the user-supplied login id. If the given account exists, the user will be prompted with "Password:". If the user has supplied an invalid telnet account name, the system will respond with "User unknown."
In combination with brute-force password techniques, to which this device is reportedly vulnerable, this can permit a remote attacker to compromise arbitrary accounts on the system. Properly exploited, this can lead to a compromise of the device's normal operation.
