FaceSentry Access Control System, published on 24 Dec 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2019-25241 exists.\n\nAffected product: iWT Ltd. FaceSentry Access Control System. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-25241/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-25241/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-25241","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-25241/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-25241","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p8qm-v86v-r6gq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FaceSentry access control","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can use hard-coded SSH credentials and insecure sudoers to gain root access on FaceSentry access control systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"facesentry_access_control_system_firmware","vendor":"iwt"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"FaceSentry Access Control System 6.4.8 contains a critical authentication vulnerability with hard-coded SSH credentials for the wwwuser account.
