Sensitive information disclosure via hard-coded authentication keys
Published Jul 31, 2025 · Updated Jul 31, 2025
Hard-coded credentials in HPE Telco Network Function Virtual Orchestrator 7.0.0 through 7.3.0 allow local users to read sensitive system information. The storage policy embeds certain authentication keys as fixed credentials, but HPE does not disclose their storage location or retrieval path. Exploitation requires high local privileges and exposes confidential information without reported modification or service interruption.
