Administrative access via shared default credentials
Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Sep 30, 2025
Use of default credentials in Airship AI Acropolis before 10.2.35, 11.0.21, or 11.1.9 allows remote attackers to gain administrative access. The product provisions the same administrative credentials on every installation, so its login service accepts a credential pair shared across deployments. Exploitation requires network reachability and an unchanged default password; successful login grants management privileges over servers, sensors, users, permissions, and groups.
