Full system compromise via guessable default credentials
Published Oct 26, 2023 · Updated Jan 16, 2025
Weak default credentials in Sielco PolyEco1000 CPU/FPGA firmware allow remote attackers to gain full system control by password guessing. The published advisory does not identify a login endpoint; it states that weak default administrative credentials remain exposed to unrestricted remote attempts. Affected builds pair CPU 1.7.0 with FPGA 10.16 or CPU 1.9.3, 1.9.4, 2.0.0, 2.0.2, or 2.0.6 with FPGA 10.19; no prior access or user interaction is required.
