EyesOfNetwork Use of Hard-Coded Credentials Vulnerability
EyesOfNetwork contains a use of hard-coded credentials vulnerability, as it uses the same API key by default. Exploitation allows an attacker to calculate or guess the admin access token.
A remote attacker, without authentication, can achieve full data confidentiality loss, arbitrary modification of data, complete denial of service or system unavailability. Federal agencies are required to remediate by 2022-05-03 under CISA BOD 22-01.
This is a Use of Hard-coded Credentials (CWE-798) vulnerability in EyesOfNetwork EyesOfNetwork. An issue was discovered in EyesOfNetwork 5.3.
