CVE-2011-2762 · published 15 years ago
Summary
The web interface of the LifeSize Room appliance (version LS_RM1_3.5.3) can be tricked into believing a user is already authenticated, letting anyone access the system without a password. This could let remote users view or change settings and data on the video‑conferencing device. Apply the vendor’s security update or patch as soon as it is available and restrict network access to the appliance.
