A vulnerability was identified in MEPIS RM, an industrial software product developed by Metronik. The application contained a hardcoded cryptographic key within the Mx.Web.ComponentModel.dll component. When the option to store domain passwords was enabled, this key was used to encrypt user passwords before storing them in the application’s database. An attacker with sufficient privileges to access the database could extract the encrypted passwords, decrypt them using the embedded key, and gain unauthorized access to the associated ICS/OT environment.
