The www-data (Apache web server) account is configured to run sudo with no password for many commands (including /bin/sh and /bin/bash).
An attacker with weak credentials could access the TCP port via an open FTP port, allowing an attacker to read sensitive files and write to remotely executable directories.
The web management interface of the device allows the administrator username and password to be set to blank values. Once applied, the device permits authentication with empty credentials over the web management interface and Telnet service. This effectively disables authentication across all critical management channels, allowing any network-adjacent attacker to gain full administrative control without credentials.
The weak password on the web user interface can be exploited via HTTP or HTTPS. Once such access has been obtained, the other passwords can be changed. The weak password on Linux accounts can be accessed via SSH or Telnet, the former of which is by default enabled on trusted interfaces. While the SSH service does not support root login, a user logging in using either of the other Linux accounts may elevate to root access using the su command if they have access to the associated password.
Baseon Lantronix MSS devices do not require a password for TELNET access.
Versions of the Official registry Docker images through 2.7.0 contain a blank password for the root user. Systems deployed using affected versions of the registry container may allow a remote attacker to achieve root access with a blank password.

In Gradle Enterprise before 2023.1, a remote attacker may be able to gain access to a new installation (in certain installation scenarios) because of a non-unique initial system user password. Although this password must be changed upon the first login, it is possible that an attacker logs in before the legitimate administrator logs in.
InHand Networks IR615 Router's Versions 2.3.0.r4724 and 2.3.0.r4870 does not enforce an efficient password policy. This may allow an attacker with obtained user credentials to enumerate passwords and impersonate other application users and perform operations on their behalf.
The TIBCO EBX Web Server component of TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO EBX, TIBCO EBX, TIBCO EBX, and TIBCO Product and Service Catalog powered by TIBCO EBX contains a vulnerability that under certain specific conditions allows an attacker to enter a password other than the legitimate password and it will be accepted as valid. Affected releases are TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO EBX: versions 5.8.123 and below, TIBCO EBX: versions 5.9.3, 5.9.4, 5.9.5, 5.9.6, 5.9.7, 5.9.8, 5.9.9, 5.9.10, 5.9.11, 5.9.12, 5.9.13, and 5.9.14, TIBCO EBX: versions 6.0.0 and 6.0.1, and TIBCO Product and Service Catalog powered by TIBCO EBX: version 1.0.0.
QaTraq 6.9.2 ships with administrative account credentials which are enabled in default installations and permit immediate login via the web application login page. Because the account provides administrative privileges in the default configuration, an attacker who can reach the login page can gain administrative access.
IBM Security Verify Governance 10.0.2 does not require that users should have strong passwords by default, which makes it easier for attackers to compromise user accounts.

An issue was discovered in AvertX Auto focus Night Vision HD Indoor/Outdoor IP Dome Camera HD838 and Night Vision HD Indoor/Outdoor Mini IP Bullet Camera HD438. They do not require users to change the default password for the admin account. They only show a pop-up window suggesting a change but there's no enforcement. An administrator can click Cancel and proceed to use the device without changing the password. Additionally, they disclose the default username within the login.js script. Since many attacks for IoT devices, including malware and exploits, are based on the usage of default credentials, it makes these cameras an easy target for malicious actors.
In IQrouter through 3.3.1, the Lua function reset_password in the web-panel allows remote attackers to change the root password arbitrarily. Note: The vendor claims that this vulnerability can only occur on a brand-new network that, after initiating the forced initial configuration (which has a required step for setting a secure password on the system), makes this CVE invalid. This vulnerability is “true for any unconfigured release of OpenWRT, and true of many other new Linux distros prior to being configured for the first time”
There are no requirements for setting a complex password for PiiGAB M-Bus, which could contribute to a successful brute force attack if the password is inline with recommended password guidelines.
Cloudexplorer-lite is an open source cloud software stack. Weak passwords can be easily guessed and are an easy target for brute force attacks. This can lead to an authentication system failure and compromise system security. Versions of cloudexplorer-lite prior to 1.2.0 did not enforce strong passwords. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 1.2.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
An issue discovered in Pfsense CE version 2.6.0 allows attackers to compromise user accounts via weak password requirements.
HCL AION version 2 is affected by a Weak Password Policy vulnerability. This can allow the use of easily guessable passwords, potentially resulting in unauthorized access
An issue was discovered on Thermo Fisher Ion Torrent OneTouch 2 INS1005527 devices. They run an SSH server accessible over the default port 22. The root account has a weak default password of ionadmin, and a password change policy for the root account is not enforced. Thus, an attacker with network connectivity can achieve root code execution. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
An improper access control vulnerability in Fortinet FortiWebManager 5.8.0 allows anyone that can access the admin webUI to successfully log-in regardless the provided password.

Successful attacks can lead to unauthorised access and execution of operations based on assigned user permissions. This vulnerability affects VIS Pro in versions <= 3.3.0.6. This vulnerability has been mitigated by changes in authentication mechanisms and implementation of additional authentication layer and strong password policies.
