CVE-2024-38466Network attack vector

Unauthenticated account access via default password

Published Jun 16, 2024 · Updated Mar 19, 2025

Use of hard-coded credentials in Shenzhen Guoxin Synthesis image system before 8.3.0 allows remote attackers to gain unauthorized account access. The product assigns the literal password 123456Qw as a default credential and accepts it for authentication instead of requiring a unique secret. Network access to an authentication interface is required; public sources do not identify the account, its privileges, or whether the credential can be changed.
