Use of hard-coded credentials in Samsung Electronics MagicINFO 9 Server before 21.1090.1 allows remote attackers to manipulate its database. The server stores an invariant database account and password in hard-coded data, then accepts that pair for database login. No prior application account or user interaction is required; successful login permits unauthorized manipulation of database contents.
