CVE-2025-9982

A vulnerability exists in QuickCMS version 6.8 where sensitive admin credentials are hardcoded in a configuration file and stored in plaintext. This flaw allows attackers with access to the source code or the server file system to retrieve authentication details, potentially leading to privilege escalation. The vendor was notified early about this vulnerability, but didn't respond with the details of vulnerability or vulnerable version range. Only version 6.8 was tested and confirmed as vulnerable, other versions were not tested and might also be vulnerable.

Summary		(es) Una vulnerabilidad existe en QuickCMS versión 6.8 donde las credenciales de administrador sensibles están codificadas de forma rígida en un archivo de configuración y almacenadas en texto plano. Esta falla permite a los atacantes con acceso al código fuente o al sistema de archivos del servidor recuperar los detalles de autenticación, lo que podría llevar a una escalada de privilegios. El proveedor fue notificado con antelación sobre esta vulnerabilidad, pero no respondió con los detalles de la vulnerabilidad o el rango de versiones vulnerables. Solo la versión 6.8 fue probada y confirmada como vulnerable, otras versiones no fueron probadas y también podrían ser vulnerables.
