CVE-2025-46352: Consilium Safety CS5000 Fire Panel Use of Hard-coded Credentials

9.8 CVSS

Description

The CS5000 Fire Panel is vulnerable due to a hard-coded password that
runs on a VNC server and is visible as a string in the binary
responsible for running VNC. This password cannot be altered, allowing
anyone with knowledge of it to gain remote access to the panel. Such
access could enable an attacker to operate the panel remotely,
potentially putting the fire panel into a non-functional state and
causing serious safety issues.
