CVE-2023-36651Network attack vector

Super-admin access via hard-coded web credentials

Published Dec 12, 2023 · Updated Aug 28, 2024

Hard-coded credentials in ProLion CryptoSpike 3.0.15P2 allow remote attackers to gain super-admin access through web management. CryptoSpike contains hidden, fixed login credentials that the web-management authentication flow accepts for its super-admin account. Knowledge of the embedded credentials is the only stated gate, after which the most privileged REST API endpoints become available.
