Western Digital My Cloud Authentication Bypass
Posted by deepcore on September 19, 2018 – 10:35 am
It was discovered that the Western Digital My Cloud is affected by an authentication bypass vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to authenticate as an admin user without needing to provide a password, thereby gaining full control of the My Cloud device. This vulnerability was successfully verified on a Western Digital My Cloud model WDBCTL0020HWT running firmware version 2.30.172. This issue is not limited to the model that was used to find this vulnerability since most of the products in the My Cloud series share the same (vulnerable) code.
