    Title
    Hardcoded AES-128 Key and Fixed IV in Configuration Backup Encryption in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7
    Summary
    A hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability exists in the user-configuration backup mechanism of TP-Link RE305 V3 and Archer C7 V5. A fixed AES-128 key and initialization vector are embedded in the firmware configuration-management component. An attacker who obtains an affected configuration backup file may extract the cryptographic material from the firmware and use it to decrypt the backup.  Successful exploitation may disclose sensitive configuration information contained in a backup file, including administrator passwords and Wi-Fi credentials.

    Title
    Hardcoded Shared RSA-1024 Private Key in Web Login in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7
    Summary
    A hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability exists in TP-Link RE305 V3 and Archer C7 V5. The same RSA-1024 private key is stored within firmware configuration files and reused across devices. An attacker who obtains the private key and captures an HTTP Web UI login session may use the key to decrypt the administrator password.  Successful exploitation may disclose the administrator password captured from an HTTP login session and compromise session confidentiality.

    Title
    Hardcoded AES-128 Key and Fixed IV in Configuration Backup Encryption in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7
    Summary
    A hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability exists in the user-configuration backup mechanism of TP-Link RE305 V3 and Archer C7 V5. A fixed AES-128 key and initialization vector are embedded in the firmware configuration-management component. An attacker who obtains an affected configuration backup file may extract the cryptographic material from the firmware and use it to decrypt the backup.  Successful exploitation may disclose sensitive configuration information contained in a backup file, including administrator passwords and Wi-Fi credentials.

    Hardcoded Shared RSA-1024 Private Key in Web Login in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7
    Summary
    A hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability exists in TP-Link RE305 V3 and Archer C7 V5. The same RSA-1024 private key is stored within firmware configuration files and reused across devices. An attacker who obtains the private key and captures an HTTP Web UI login session may use the key to decrypt the administrator password.  Successful exploitation may disclose the administrator password captured from an HTTP login session and compromise session confidentiality.
