How the Exploit Works

The vulnerability exists due to hardcoded credentials within the ENENSYS IPGuard software. These credentials can be leveraged by an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the system. The attacker can exploit the vulnerability remotely over a network without requiring user interaction or additional privileges. Given the hardcoded nature of these credentials, they remain consistent across all installations of the software, making this a highly exploitable vulnerability.

Conceptual Example Code

Below is a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited. This is a pseudo-code of an HTTP request that could be used by an attacker to exploit the hardcoded credentials:

POST /login HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{
"username": "hardcoded_username",
"password": "hardcoded_password"
}

In this example, an attacker could use the hardcoded credentials (“hardcoded_username” and “hardcoded_password”) to authenticate and gain unauthorized access to the system.
