Title
Use of hard-coded VNC credentials in the engineering-workstation provisioning
Summary
A provisioning script used when installing HIPASE-250 (formerly 250
SCALA) engineering workstations sets a fixed, hard-coded x11vnc
password. Because the same credential is applied to every workstation
provisioned this way, an attacker with adjacent-network access who
knows the password can gain VNC access to affected workstations.
