Hi,

You can read the usernames and MD5 hashed passwords of all the users
in the Device Expert application by sending an unauthenticated
request.
I am releasing this as a 0 day as ManageEngine have responded that
they do not consider this a priority and won't fix it in the near
future unless a customer requests it. See details below.
