The Dataprobe iBoot PDU running firmware version 1.43.03312023 or earlier is vulnerable to authentication bypass in the REST API due to the mishandling of special characters when parsing credentials.Successful exploitation allows the malicious agent to obtain a valid authorization token and read information relating to the state of the relays and power distribution.
The product performs authentication based on the name of a resource being accessed, or the name of the actor performing the access, but it does not properly check all possible names for that resource or actor.
When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.
