DescriptionCVE.org

Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability in TÜBİTAK BİLGEM Software Technologies Research Institute Liderahenk allows Try Common or Default Usernames and Passwords.

This issue affects Liderahenk: before 3.5.5.

AnalysisAI

Hard-coded credentials in TÜBİTAK BİLGEM's Liderahenk Linux endpoint management platform (all versions before 3.5.5) let a remote, unauthenticated attacker log in using built-in default/common username-password pairs, yielding an authentication bypass with high confidentiality and integrity impact. Because Liderahenk centrally administers fleets of Pardus/Linux clients, valid access to its management interface exposes managed-endpoint policies and configuration. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against default configurations of Liderahenk, since the credentials are hard-coded and shipped with the product (CVSS PR:N/UI:N/AC:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals are consistent and point to genuine priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with network access to a Liderahenk server (before 3.5.5) submits the software's hard-coded/default credentials to the management interface and is authenticated without any prior access, then reads or alters central endpoint-management policy and configuration for the managed Linux fleet. Because the credentials are static and identical across installations, exploitation is scriptable and requires no user interaction; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the low complexity makes independent rediscovery of the credentials straightforward.
Remediation Vendor-released patch: 3.5.5 - upgrade all Liderahenk installations to version 3.5.5 or later, which is the first release outside the affected 'before 3.5.5' range, per the TR-CERT advisory at https://siberguvenlik.gov.tr/guvenlik-bildirimleri/detay/tr-26-0916. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: inventory all Liderahenk deployments, document current versions and managed endpoint counts, and restrict network access to the management interface using firewall rules or network segmentation. …
