Solution

We recommend that when enabling Wi-Fi 802.1X, you can restrict the access types of web users by updating security.web_limited_access_level via Auto Provision; for example: security.web_limited_access_level=user. Alternatively, refer to the Admin Guide to configure Wi-Fi permissions for the user account: network-wifi = 2, wifi = 2. Regarding this vulnerability, newer firmware versions of the device have, by default, restricted 802.1X-related function permissions to administrator-only.


Workaround

No workaround given by the vendor.
