What to Know

An incorrect authorization vulnerability in the WinBox

authentication flow of MikroTik RouterOS allows a remote authenticated attacker

with credentials for a low-privilege account permitted to use WinBox to obtain

the authorization policy of a different existing account. The stage-one EC-SRP

challenge and proof are verified using the attacker's account, while the

independently supplied stage-two username is used to install the target

account's privileges. By specifying a higher-privilege account such as admin, a

low-privilege user can obtain a full administrative session without knowing the

target account's password and can use that session to increase the privileges

of the attacker's own account. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor MikroTik's web page for any future patch releases.
