F5 BIG-IP SSH Private Key Exposure

F5 BIG-IP SSH Private Key Exposure
Posted Jun 12, 2012
Authored by egypt | Site metasploit.com

F5 ships a public/private key pair on BIG-IP appliances that allows passwordless authentication to any other BIG-IP box. Since the key is easily retrievable, an attacker can use it to gain unauthorized remote access as root.
