Plaintext password rendering in PUSR USR-W610 web management UI

IdentifiersCVE-2026-26049CWE-522· Insufficiently Protected Credentials

In Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited (PUSR) USR-W610 Wi‑Fi router web management interface (affected versions up to and including 3.1.1.0), the UI renders the device’s current password in a plaintext input field rather than masking it. As a result, the password is directly visible to anyone who can view the management page, and may also be exposed via screenshots/screen sharing or retained by browser form caching/autofill mechanisms.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Exposure of valid administrative credentials to unauthorized observers (e.g., shoulder surfing, screenshots, or browser caching), which can enable subsequent unauthorized administrative access if the captured credentials are reused to authenticate to the device’s management interface.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Restrict access to the web management interface to trusted administrators only (e.g., management VLAN/VPN, IP allowlisting, segmentation) and enforce physical/operational controls to prevent observation (no screen sharing/screenshots during admin sessions). Use hardened/admin-only browsers and policies to reduce caching/autofill/password-saving for the management UI, and rotate potentially exposed passwords; enable MFA if the platform supports it.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Apply a vendor firmware update/fix (when available) that prevents displaying the current password in cleartext and uses a masked password input control (e.g., HTML input type="password") and appropriate no-store/no-autofill controls. Rotate administrative credentials after any session where exposure may have occurred.
