rust-iot-platform through commit 5df942ab stores user passwords in cleartext without hashing in the user model. Attackers can read API responses from user retrieval and listing routes to obtain plaintext credentials for all accounts.
AnalysisAI
Cleartext password storage in rust-iot-platform (through commit 5df942ab) enables unauthenticated network attackers to harvest plaintext credentials for every registered account by querying standard user retrieval and listing API routes. The root cause is CWE-256: the user model persists passwords without hashing, and those fields are then serialized into API responses without sanitization. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Per the CVSS 4.0 vector (PR:N/UI:N/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N), no authentication, user interaction, or special configuration is required - exploitation is possible against a default-configured deployment accessible over the network. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H reflects a high-confidence assessment of easy, unauthenticated network exploitation with full credential exposure. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the references point only to the vulnerable commit without a corresponding fix commit or tagged release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory all rust-iot-platform deployments to identify which are internet-accessible; for exposed instances, immediately restrict network access to known legitimate sources only and enable detailed logging of all user API endpoint access. …
