CWE-259: Use of Hard-coded Password

RND includes a jailed environment to allow users to configure devices without complete shell access to the underlying operating system. The jailed environment includes a built-in jailbreak for technicians to elevate privileges. The jailbreak requires a weak password that is hardcoded into the environment. Anyone with this password can access an RND server with root permissions.

No patches have been supplied by the vendor at this time. To mitigate risk, network administrators should limit access to the wireless management environments that use these affected products, allowing a limited set of trusted users and their authenticated clients to manage Ruckus infrastructure via a secure protocol such as HTTPS or SSH.
