Title
Use of hard-coded VNC credentials in the engineering-workstation provisioning
Summary
A provisioning script used when installing HIPASE-250 (formerly 250
SCALA) engineering workstations sets a fixed, hard-coded x11vnc
password. Because the same credential is applied to every workstation
provisioned this way, an attacker with adjacent-network access who
knows the password can gain VNC access to affected workstations.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
