Title
Hardcoded credential in the IBM Storage Protect Snapshot For Windows leads to unauthorized access to system
Summary
IBM Storage Protect Client 8.1.0.0 through 8.2.1.0 and IBM Storage Protect Snapshot For Windows 8.1.0.0 through 8.2.1.0 could allow a remote attacker to bypass authentication due to the use of a hardcoded credential in the FlashCopy Manager (FCM) authentication mechanism. The application contains a static credential embedded in multiple authentication code paths, and does not properly validate authentication responses, which may allow an unauthenticated attacker to establish a trusted session and access protected services. This vulnerability affects client components across multiple versions and may allow an attacker to impersonate legitimate clients, potentially leading to unauthorized access to system resources.

Title
Embedded credentials in Virtuagym
Summary
The vulnerability allows the unauthorised generation of physical access QR codes due to the use of hard-coded credentials within the application. The generation mechanism uses the 'badge_number' parameter as the HMAC private key, the value of which remains static and is accessible via the API using the endpoint '/club/_id_club_/member/_id_member_/resamania_qr_info'. An attacker with access to this value and to the application’s cryptographic logic, which can be extracted by reverse engineering the APK as there is no code obfuscation, could generate valid QR codes indefinitely, even after the user has changed their password or logged out.

Title
Hardcoded Credential Vulnerability in Multiple TP-Link Router Models
Summary
A hardcoded credential
vulnerability exists in the firmware of multiple TP-Link routers (TL-WR845N v4, TL-WR850N v3, TL-WR902AC v4, Archer C20 v6 & Archer MR200 v5). Authentication-related credential material is
embedded within a password file in the firmware image and may be recovered
through firmware analysis.
Successful
exploitation could result in unauthorized access to privileged functions on
affected devices.

Title
Unauthenticated File Exfiltration in Altium Enterprise Server Vault Service via Hard-coded Cryptographic Key and Path Traversal
Summary
A hard-coded cryptographic key is used by Altium Enterprise Server to sign file download URLs in the Vault service. Because the key is identical across all installations, an unauthenticated network attacker who can reach the server can forge valid download signatures and retrieve files from the Vault storage area without any authentication, session, or credentials.
A separate path traversal vulnerability in the same download endpoint allows the configured storage root to be escaped, enabling reads of arbitrary files on the server filesystem. Combined, these issues allow an unauthenticated attacker to obtain sensitive server configuration and key material, which can lead to full server compromise. The vulnerability can be chained with CVE-2026-9152 to enumerate and bulk-download stored content. Altium 365 cloud deployments are not impacted in practice, as file storage uses object storage rather than the local filesystem.

Title
Yarbo Android/iOS Mobile Application and Cloud Infrastructure Use of Hard-coded Credentials
Summary
The Yarbo Android and iOS applications contain hard-coded MQTT broker credentials that are identical for all users and all devices. These credentials are embedded in the application binary and are readily extractable via APK decompilation. The credentials provide access to cloud MQTT brokers carrying real-time telemetry for the entire global Yarbo robot fleet. They allow both wildcard subscription to all robot telemetry topics and publishing to any robot's command topic using only the robot's serial number.

Title
Taiko AG1000-01A Rev 7.3/8 Hard-coded Credentials via login.zhtml
Summary
Taiko AG1000-01A SMS Alert Gateway Rev 7.3 and Rev 8 contains a hard-coded credential vulnerability in the embedded web configuration interface where authentication is implemented entirely in client-side JavaScript in login.zhtml, exposing static plaintext credentials in the page source. Unauthenticated attackers with network access can recover administrative credentials directly from the client-side validate() function to obtain full administrative access to the device.

Title
Hard-coded / Backdoor Accounts
Summary
Two undocumented privileged accounts exist in Autel Maxi Charger Single firmware through V1.03.51. The accounts use vendor-defined password derivation mechanisms based on device-specific values, allowing an attacker with knowledge of the algorithm and required inputs to authenticate to the web management interface with administrative privileges.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
- For outbound authentication: store passwords, keys, and other credentials outside of the code in a strongly-protected, encrypted configuration file or database that is protected from access by all outsiders, including other local users on the same system. Properly protect the key (CWE-320). If you cannot use encryption to protect the file, then make sure that the permissions are as restrictive as possible [REF-7].
- In Windows environments, the Encrypted File System (EFS) may provide some protection.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
For inbound authentication: Rather than hard-code a default username and password, key, or other authentication credentials for first time logins, utilize a "first login" mode that requires the user to enter a unique strong password or key.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
If the product must contain hard-coded credentials or they cannot be removed, perform access control checks and limit which entities can access the feature that requires the hard-coded credentials. For example, a feature might only be enabled through the system console instead of through a network connection.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
- For inbound authentication using passwords: apply strong one-way hashes to passwords and store those hashes in a configuration file or database with appropriate access control. That way, theft of the file/database still requires the attacker to try to crack the password. When handling an incoming password during authentication, take the hash of the password and compare it to the saved hash.
- Use randomly assigned salts for each separate hash that is generated. This increases the amount of computation that an attacker needs to conduct a brute-force attack, possibly limiting the effectiveness of the rainbow table method.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
- For front-end to back-end connections: Three solutions are possible, although none are complete.
- The first suggestion involves the use of generated passwords or keys that are changed automatically and must be entered at given time intervals by a system administrator. These passwords will be held in memory and only be valid for the time intervals.
- Next, the passwords or keys should be limited at the back end to only performing actions valid for the front end, as opposed to having full access.
- Finally, the messages sent should be tagged and checksummed with time sensitive values so as to prevent replay-style attacks.
CAPEC-191: Read Sensitive Constants Within an Executable
An adversary engages in activities to discover any sensitive constants present within the compiled code of an executable. These constants may include literal ASCII strings within the file itself, or possibly strings hard-coded into particular routines that can be revealed by code refactoring methods including static and dynamic analysis.
CAPEC-70: Try Common or Default Usernames and Passwords
An adversary may try certain common or default usernames and passwords to gain access into the system and perform unauthorized actions. An adversary may try an intelligent brute force using empty passwords, known vendor default credentials, as well as a dictionary of common usernames and passwords. Many vendor products come preconfigured with default (and thus well-known) usernames and passwords that should be deleted prior to usage in a production environment. It is a common mistake to forget to remove these default login credentials. Another problem is that users would pick very simple (common) passwords (e.g. "secret" or "password") that make it easier for the attacker to gain access to the system compared to using a brute force attack or even a dictionary attack using a full dictionary.
