Default Password Vulnerability in ZyXEL Prestige Routers

CVE-2008-1522

Summary

ZyXEL Prestige routers, specifically the P-660 and P-661 models, are susceptible to unauthorized access due to the use of default passwords: 'user' for the 'user' account and '1234' for the 'admin' account. This security lapse makes it significantly easier for remote attackers to gain control over these devices, potentially compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the entire network. Users are urged to change these default passwords immediately to bolster security.
