Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

This report discusses a significant cybersecurity vulnerability identified as CVE-2025-4130, affecting the PAVO Pay system by PAVO Inc. The vulnerability revolves around the use of hard-coded credentials, leading to unauthorized access of sensitive constants within an executable. This issue is of critical importance due to its potential to compromise systems and leak confidential data.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2025-4130
\nSeverity: High (CVSS 7.5)
\nAttack Vector: Network
\nPrivileges Required: None
\nUser Interaction: None
\nImpact: System compromise and potential data leakage<\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

PAVO Pay | Before 13.05.2025<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

The exploit works by exploiting the hard-coded credentials in PAVO Pay. By discovering these built-in credentials, malicious actors can gain unauthorized access to sensitive constants within an executable. This could potentially lead to system compromise or sensitive data leakage as the attacker may gain high-level access to system functions and data.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s a conceptual example of how the vulnerability can be exploited:<\/p>\n

POST \/pavo\/pay HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/json\n{\n\"username\": \"hardcoded_username\",\n\"password\": \"hardcoded_password\"\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this case, the `hardcoded_username` and `hardcoded_password` are the built-in credentials used in PAVO Pay. By sending a HTTP request with these credentials, an attacker could potentially gain unauthorized access to the system.<\/p>\n
Mitigation Guidance<\/strong><\/p>\n
To mitigate this vulnerability, users of PAVO Pay are advised to apply the vendor patch as soon as it becomes available. In the interim, it is recommended to use a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) as temporary mitigation. Regular security audits and vulnerability scanning are also crucial to ensure the continuous safety of the system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
