FKIE_CVE-2009-1472

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2009-05-27 16:30 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:07
Severity
Summary
The Java client program for the ATEN KH1516i IP KVM switch with firmware 1.0.063 and the KN9116 IP KVM switch with firmware 1.1.104 has a hardcoded AES encryption key, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to (1) execute arbitrary Java code, or (2) gain access to machines connected to the switch, by hijacking a session.
