VAR-201412-0564
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-13 23:25Ekahau B4 staff badge tag 5.7 with firmware 1.4.52, Real-Time Location System (RTLS) Controller 6.0.5-FINAL, and Activator 3 reuses the RC4 cipher stream, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain plaintext messages via an XOR operation on two ciphertexts. Ekahau Real-Time Location System is prone to multiple security weaknesses. Successful exploits may allow an attacker to bypass certain security restrictions and perform unauthorized actions. Ekahau Real-Time Location System (RTLS) is a real-time positioning system based on Wi-Fi (wireless) of Ekahau Company in the United States. Activator is one of the label setter components. A security vulnerability exists in several Ekahau products due to program reuse of RC4 cipher streams. A remote attacker can use the XOR operation to exploit this vulnerability to obtain plaintext information. The following products and versions are affected: Ekahau B4 staff badge tag version 5.7 using firmware version 1.4.52, RTLS Controller version 6.0.5-FINAL, Activator 3 version
