Key must first be extracted from the binary (a non-trivial one-time step, so AC:H), but once recovered it is reusable network-wide without auth (AV:N/PR:N), impacting confidentiality and integrity only.

DescriptionCVE.org

Use of hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability in Bilin Software and Informatics Consultancy Inc. HUMANIST Digital Human Resources allows Read Sensitive Constants Within an Executable.

This issue affects HUMANIST Digital Human Resources: from 26.0 before 26.1.

AnalysisAI

Sensitive-data exposure in Bilin Software's HUMANIST Digital Human Resources (versions 26.0 up to but not including 26.1) stems from a cryptographic key embedded directly in the application binary, letting attackers recover the same static key from any deployment and abuse it against protected data. Because the key is identical across all installations, its extraction undermines confidentiality and integrity of anything it protects. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the attacker first obtain the vulnerable HUMANIST Digital HR executable (versions 26.0 through pre-26.1) and extract the embedded cryptographic constant - a one-time reverse-engineering step against the binary. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor/NVD CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, C:H/I:H/A:N, score 9.1) rates this as critical network-exploitable without authentication, which is defensible for a hard-coded key: once the universal key is extracted from any copy of the binary, it can be reused remotely against every deployment to decrypt or forge data without further credentials. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker obtains a copy of the HUMANIST Digital HR executable (as a customer, via a leak, or from a shared distribution), decompiles or inspects it, and extracts the hard-coded cryptographic key. Using that universal key, the attacker then decrypts intercepted sensitive HR data or forges/validates cryptographically protected values against any deployment over the network, without needing valid credentials. …
Remediation Upgrade to HUMANIST Digital Human Resources version 26.1, which is the first release outside the affected range and constitutes the vendor fix (Vendor-released patch: 26.1). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify and inventory all HUMANIST Digital Human Resources deployments running versions 26.0 through 26.0.x, prioritize systems containing sensitive employee records, assess data exposure scope, and notify your legal and compliance teams of potential breach notification obligations under applicable regulations. …
