|---|
| Description | The affected installation artifacts are `example_lite.sql` and `README.MD`. `example_lite.sql:205-206` inserts the administrator account `admin` with password hash `21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3`, and `README.MD:125-129` documents the same administrator as a generic example. This hash corresponds to the trivial password `admin`. Importing the supplied sample database therefore creates a known administrator credential that authenticates through `login.php`. A remote attacker can log in as an administrator in installations that use the provided sample data without changing the account. |
