WVE ID: WVE-2006-0010

Type: Vulnerability

Status: Candidate

Classification:
Authentication Management

Description:
The Hitachi IP5000 802.11 VOIP phone uses a hard-coded password to protect it from being configured by unauthorized parties.

Discussion:
The Hitachi IP5000 802.11 VOIP phone provides a means to configure it by using the keypad on the handset. In order to limit access to this functionality a hard-coded password of "0000" is used.

After gaining physical access it is possible for an attacker to reconfigure the phone or obtain information a user has stored in the phone such as their personal contacts.
