Use of hard-coded credentials in Prospero Flow CRM employee onboarding
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 37/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.53% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: Roskus Prospero Flow CRM 5.15.9.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Roskus Prospero Flow CRM 5.15.9 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Use of Hard-coded Credentials in the human resources component in Roskus Prospero Flow CRM before 5.15.9 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to authenticate as any employee onboarded through the standard flow, knowing only their email address, because the employee save controller falls back to the literal password "changeme" and the onboarding form provides no password field.

Root cause
For convenience in support or manufacturing, an account that is identical on every device is embedded in the software. Credentials learned from one device work on all of them.
