CVE-2026-16731

OMICRON StationScout before version 3.05 contains a cryptographic timing side-channel vulnerability in the backend authentication mechanism that may allow an unauthenticated attacker to forge valid authentication credentials, bypass authentication and authorization, and impersonate legitimate clients. An attacker can gain full access to the system configuration, allowing modification, reset, or unauthorized alteration of system parameters or injecting network traffic into the connected network.

Summary		(es) OMICRON StationScout anterior a la versión 3.05 contiene una vulnerabilidad de canal lateral de tiempo criptográfico en el mecanismo de autenticación del backend que puede permitir a un atacante no autenticado forjar credenciales de autenticación válidas, eludir la autenticación y la autorización, y suplantar la identidad de clientes legítimos. Un atacante puede obtener acceso completo a la configuración del sistema, permitiendo la modificación, el restablecimiento o la alteración no autorizada de los parámetros del sistema o la inyección de tráfico de red en la red conectada.
