High CVSS 8.1
CVE-2026-19900
A vulnerability was identified in LB-LINK X-PRO 1.0.22-20231206. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file /etc/shadow. The manipulation leads to hard-coded credentials. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is regarded as difficult. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim. The attack does require particular conditions, which makes it less systematic.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Credentials are hard-coded in the product and identical across every installation.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.
