Root access via hard-coded SSH credential
Published Aug 10, 2026 · Updated Aug 10, 2026
Hard-coded credentials in TBEA TLogger V2.1.0.0B0.0.0.0 allow remote attackers to gain root access through the exposed SSH service. The firmware uses a recoverable, reusable root password hash in /etc/shadow while its SSH service accepts that password for the root account. Network reachability to SSH and no prior authentication are required; successful login grants full administrative control of the device.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
