CVE-2017-7305: Riverbed Rios

Medium severity, CVSS 4.6. EPSS: 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Riverbed RiOS through 9.6.0 does not require a bootloader password, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to defeat the secure-vault protection mechanism via a crafted boot. NOTE: the vendor believes that this does not meet the definition of a vulnerability. The product contains correct computational logic for a bootloader password; however, this password is optional to meet different customers' needs

Affected products

  • Riverbed Rios: up to and including 9.6.0
