Operating-system access via weak hard-coded password
Published May 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Hard-coded credentials in GE HealthCare EchoPAC and ImageVault products allow remote attackers on a hospital network to access the operating system. GE HealthCare has not disclosed the affected account or service; it states that the products store hard-coded, unencrypted credentials. Physical device access or hospital-network access is required; compromise can expose patient data or render the system unusable, and SWO is affected only with EchoPAC Share.
