Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-08-18 00:00 – Updated: 2022-08-23 00:00

Details

Softing Secure Integration Server, edgeConnector, and edgeAggregator software ships with the default administrator credentials as admin and password as admin. This allows Softing to log in to the server directly to perform administrative functions. Upon installation or upon first login, the application does not ask the user to change the admin password. There is no warning or prompt to ask the user to change the default password, and to change the password, many steps are required.

Severity

9.8 (Critical)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
