CVSS 3.1
8.1
HighMetricsAV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
XWEB EVO versions prior to 5.8.9
Description
The software contains a predictable credential generation issue that allows attackers to derive the Linux root password. This is achieved by computing a fixed prefix combined with a daily password value. For versions prior to 5.7.0, the root credential was identical across all units. From version 5.7.0 onwards, the credential remains derivable from the MAC-based daily password, enabling unauthorized root access to the underlying operating system.
Recommendations
Update XWEB EVO to a version newer than 5.8.8.
