Brocade Fabric OS versions starting with 9.1.0 have root access removed, however, a local user with admin privilege can potentially execute arbitrary code with full root privileges on Fabric OS versions 9.1.0 through 9.1.1d6.
Brocade Fabric OS versions before
8.2.3e2, versions 9.0.0 through 9.2.0c, and 9.2.1 through 9.2.1a can
capture the SFTP/FTP server password used for a firmware download
operation initiated by SANnav or through WebEM in a weblinker core dump
that is later captured via supportsave.
A vulnerability in Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2 could allow man-in-the-middle attackers to conduct remote Service Session Hijacking that may arise from the attacker's ability to forge an SSH key while the Brocade Fabric OS Switch is performing various remote operations initiated by a switch admin.
RADIUS Protocol under RFC 2865 is susceptible to forgery attacks by a local attacker who can modify any valid Response (Access-Accept, Access-Reject, or Access-Challenge) to any other response using a chosen-prefix collision attack against MD5 Response Authenticator signature.
A vulnerability in the default configuration of the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) feature of Brocade Fabric OS versions before
v9.0.0 could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to read data from
an affected device via SNMP. The vulnerability is due to hard-coded,
default community string in the configuration file for the SNMP daemon.
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using the static
community string in SNMP version 1 queries to an affected device.
A vulnerability in the web interface in Brocade Fabric OS before v9.2.1, v9.2.0b, and v9.1.1d prints encoded session passwords on session storage for Virtual Fabric platforms.
This could allow an authenticated user to view other users' session encoded passwords.
A vulnerability in a password management API in Brocade Fabric OS versions before v9.2.1, v9.2.0b, v9.1.1d, and v8.2.3e prints sensitive information in log files. This could allow an authenticated user to view the server passwords for protocols such as scp and sftp.
Detail.
When the firmwaredownload command is incorrectly entered or points to an erroneous file, the firmware download log captures the failed command, including any password entered in the command line.
Brocade
Web Interface in Brocade Fabric OS v9.x and before v9.2.0 does not
properly represent the portName to the user if the portName contains
reserved characters. This could allow an authenticated user to alter the
UI of the Brocade Switch and change ports display.
Remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Brocade Fabric OS after v9.0 and before v9.2.0 could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code and use this to gain root access to the Brocade switch.
Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) hardware
platforms running any version of Brocade Fabric OS software, which
supports the license string format; contain cryptographic
issues that could allow for the installation of forged or fraudulent
license keys. This would allow attackers or a malicious party to forge a
counterfeit license key that the Brocade Fabric OS platform would
authenticate and activate as if it were a legitimate license key.
