CVE-2026-69657 Sep 04, 06:31 CRITICAL PATCH Act Now

Unauthenticated remote device takeover in XING (XING Inc./JOYSOUND) CPTrans-ME-X arises from a shipped default password (CWE-1393) that anyone aware of the credential can use to log in with full privileges. The flaw affects all firmware revisions of this Japanese commercial audio/video rack transmission accessory and grants complete control over confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit code has been identified, and it is not on CISA KEV, but the trivial nature of default-credential abuse makes exploitation straightforward once the credential is known.

CVE-2026-82698 Aug 31, 13:30 MEDIUM POC This Month

Default credentials hardcoded in the aca.sql database initialization file of sambitraj's Student-Management-System expose unauthenticated remote attackers to authentication bypass using publicly known passwords across all commits through 56ba287f. The project's GitHub issue tracker hosts a public proof-of-concept, and the maintainer has not responded to the disclosure, leaving no remediated release available. The limited deployment footprint (a niche student-facing open-source project) constrains aggregate real-world impact despite the trivial exploitability of default credentials.

CVE-2026-19851 Aug 25, 07:47 HIGH This Week

The XML import feature in Tuleap Enterprise Edition versions 17.0 through 17.5 assigns default passwords to user accounts created during XML import operations (CWE-1393), exposing those accounts to network-accessible credential guessing with no authentication or user interaction required. Successful exploitation grants an attacker full control of an affected user account, resulting in high confidentiality and integrity impact per the CVSS 7.7 score. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, but the unauthenticated network vector makes this a realistic threat for any organization that has used XML import for bulk user migration.

CVE-2026-5269 Jul 14, 23:17 CRITICAL Act Now

Predictable default credentials in Ciena's Navigator Network Control Suite (NCS), Manage Control Plane (MCP), and Planner Plus OnPrem expose hidden system accounts used for internal software operations to remote attackers. These accounts carry limited permissions in isolation, but their known default passwords give an attacker a foothold that can be chained with other weaknesses to escalate privilege on the management system. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, so exploitation remains theoretical rather than demonstrated.

CVE-2026-35075 Jun 03, 10:38 CRITICAL Act Now

Credential disclosure in MBS industrial protocol gateways (Single-A, Double-A, Single-X, and Double-X product families) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to extract a hard-coded default password embedded in the firmware image and use it to obtain full administrative control of any affected device. With a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3 and the vulnerability reported through CERT@VDE under advisory VDE-2026-039, the issue is severe because the recovered credential is shared across the device line, but at the time of analysis there is no public exploit identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

Default credential exposure in syslink software AG Avantra (all versions before 25.3.0) on Linux and Windows allows a local attacker with high-privilege access to authenticate using known default passwords, achieving high confidentiality impact against monitoring data and infrastructure configurations managed by the platform. Reported by NCSC.ch and addressed in version 25.3.0, this CWE-1393 flaw represents an insider threat or post-compromise lateral movement risk for organizations running Avantra in SAP and IT operations environments. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV at time of analysis.

IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty versions 17.0.0.3 through 26.0.0.3 contain a vulnerability in security settings administration that could allow authenticated attackers with high privileges to bypass expected security controls and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information. The vulnerability affects a critical administrative interface and, while it requires local access and high privileges to exploit, could enable lateral privilege escalation or information disclosure within enterprise environments. No evidence of active exploitation or public proof-of-concept has been reported, but a vendor patch is available.
