The issue is related to an insufficient session expiration, which could allow an attacker to transmit passwords over unencrypted connections, resulting in the product becoming vulnerable to interception. This could permit attackers to intercept passwords.

The issue concerns the transmission of user credentials in clear text without encryption when a user is added or user credentials are changed via the device's webpage. This affects the security of user credentials.

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: TP-Link Archer C50 (affected versions not specified) Description: The issue is related to the improper signature verification mechanism in the firmware upgrade process at the web interface of the TP-Link Archer C50. This allows an attacker with administrative privileges within the router's Wi-Fi range to exploit the vulnerability by uploading and executing malicious firmware, potentially leading to the complete compromise of the targeted device. The exploitation can result in the execution of arbitrary code and may cause a denial of service. Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
