VAR-200803-0434
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:25RaidSonic NAS-4220-B with 2.6.0-n(2007-10-11) firmware stores a partition encryption key in an unencrypted /system/.crypt file with base64 encoding, which allows local users to obtain the key. RaidSonic NAS-4220-B is prone to a vulnerability that can compromise encrypted data. This issue occurs because the key used by the device to encrypt hard-drive data is stored insecurely in the configuration partitions of each drive. Attackers with physical access to the NAS can exploit this issue to decrypt potentially sensitive information stored on the hard disks. This issue affects NAS-4220-B running firmware 2.6.0-n(2007-10-11). Other devices and firmware versions may also be affected. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
