CVE-2018-20100An issue was discovered on August Connect devices. Insecure data transfer between the August app and August Connect during configuration allows attackers to discover home Wi-Fi credentials. This data transfer uses an unencrypted access point for these credentials, and passes them in an HTTP POST, using the AugustWifiDevice class, with data encrypted with a fixed key found obfuscated in the app.
CVE-2018-17915All versions of Hangzhou Xiongmai Technology Co., Ltd XMeye P2P Cloud Server do not encrypt all device communication. This includes the XMeye service and firmware update communication. This could allow an attacker to eavesdrop on video feeds, steal XMeye login credentials, or impersonate the update server with malicious update code.
CVE-2018-13992The WebUI of PHOENIX CONTACT FL SWITCH 3xxx, 4xxx, 48xx versions 1.0 to 1.34 allows for plaintext transmission (HTTP) of user credentials by default.
CVE-2018-10698An issue was discovered on Moxa AWK-3121 1.14 devices. The device enables an unencrypted TELNET service by default. This allows an attacker who has been able to gain an MITM position to easily sniff the traffic between the device and the user. Also an attacker can easily connect to the TELNET daemon using the default credentials if they have not been changed by the user.
CVE-2017-9854An issue was discovered in SMA Solar Technology products. By sniffing for specific packets on the localhost, plaintext passwords can be obtained as they are typed into Sunny Explorer by the user. These passwords can then be used to compromise the overall device. NOTE: the vendor reports that exploitation likelihood is low because these packets are usually sent only once during installation. Also, only Sunny Boy TLST-21 and TL-21 and Sunny Tripower TL-10 and TL-30 could potentially be affected
CVE-2017-9632A Missing Encryption of Sensitive Data issue was discovered in PDQ Manufacturing LaserWash G5 and G5 S Series all versions, LaserWash M5, all versions, LaserWash 360 and 360 Plus, all versions, LaserWash AutoXpress and AutoExpress Plus, all versions, LaserJet, all versions, ProTouch Tandem, all versions, ProTouch ICON, all versions, and ProTouch AutoGloss, all versions.

CVE-2025-69969A lack of authentication and authorization mechanisms in the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communication protocol of SRK Powertech Pvt Ltd Pebble Prism Ultra v2.9.2 allows attackers to reverse engineer the protocol and execute arbitrary commands on the device without establishing a connection. This is exploitable over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) proximity (Adjacent), requiring no physical contact with the device. Furthermore, the vulnerability is not limited to arbitrary commands but includes cleartext data interception and unauthenticated firmware hijacking via OTA services.
