Official description

Naxclow devices use a server-side, per-device relay credential that never rotates and is re-issued to the device on each boot. Because this credential remains valid indefinitely and cannot be reset or revoked by the legitimate owner, any party that obtains it through any exposure path can maintain persistent access to the device’s relay channel. This enables long-term impersonation or interception, even after factory resets or re-onboarding.

The underlying weakness: Not Using Password Aging

The product does not have a mechanism in place for managing password aging.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • As part of a product's design, require users to change their passwords regularly and avoid reusing previous passwords.
  • Developers might disable clipboard paste operations into password fields as a way to discourage users from pasting a password into a clipboard. However, this might encourage users to choose less-secure passwords that are easier to type, and it can reduce the usability of password managers.
