Generated using AI and has not been reviewed by Intruder. May contain errors.

The web-based configuration panel for Hirsch Enterphone MESH (formerly Identiv and Viscount) versions through 2024 has a vulnerability due to default credentials. The username "freedom" with the password "viscount" can be used to access the administrative interface via `mesh.webadmin.MESHAdminServlet`. The system doesn't prompt administrators to change these credentials upon initial setup, and the process to change them is complex. This vulnerability potentially allows unauthorized access to building management systems. This vulnerability has been identified as CVE-2025-26793 and assigned the GitHub ID GHSA-x8v9-7r66-c92w. It affects numerous apartment buildings in Canada and the US. Exploiting this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access and potential exposure of residents' personally identifiable information (PII). It's important to note that this information is current as of February 16, 2025, and the situation may evolve.

Description
The Web GUI configuration panel of Hirsch (formerly Identiv and Viscount) Enterphone MESH through 2024 ships with default credentials (username freedom, password viscount). The administrator is not prompted to change these credentials on initial configuration, and changing the credentials requires many steps. Attackers can use the credentials over the Internet via mesh.webadmin.MESHAdminServlet to gain access to dozens of Canadian and U.S. apartment buildings and obtain building residents' PII. NOTE: the Supplier's perspective is that the "vulnerable systems are not following manufacturers' recommendations to change the default password."
