CVE-2020-27149

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions NPort IA5150A/IA5250A Series versions prior to 1.5

Description The issue is related to inadequate access control in the NPort IA5150A/IA5250A Series, allowing a user with "Read Only" privilege level to send requests via the web console to change the device's configuration. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to bypass existing security restrictions and elevate their privileges.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.5, update to version 1.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the web console to prevent unauthorized configuration changes.
