Summary

MikroTik RouterOS from 0 through 7.23.6 and from 7.24.0 through 7.24.5 has a session token replay flaw in the WebFig interface. The makeSessionKey function in libucrypto.so generates tokens with fixed salts and the user service does not check channel context, so captured tokens can be replayed in new ECDH sessions (CWE-613). A remote attacker who captures a session token can bypass authentication and keep administrative access until the token store is explicitly cleared.

Description from the CNA

MikroTik RouterOS through 7.24.5 contains a session token replay vulnerability in the WebFig interface that allows attackers to bypass authentication by replaying captured session tokens across new ECDH sessions. The makeSessionKey function in libucrypto.so generates tokens using fixed salts without incorporating channel-specific or session-specific input, and the user service validates tokens against the login store without verifying channel context, enabling stolen tokens to grant persistent administrative access until the token store is explicitly cleared. This vulnerability extends the impact of CVE-2025-61481, which identified the underlying transport-layer exposure without a corresponding fix.
