CVE-2026-26218Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Administrative takeover via seeded default credentials

Published Feb 12, 2026 · Updated Feb 12, 2026

Hard-coded credentials in newbee-ltd newbee-mall 1.0.0 allow remote attackers to gain administrative control through the admin login. The database initialization script inserts three rows into tb_newbee_mall_admin_user with the same predictable MD5 password hash, and the login path hashes submitted passwords with unsalted MD5 before querying those records. Exposure requires a deployment initialized or reset with the supplied schema while the seeded credentials remain unchanged; successful login grants full administrative control.
