CVE-2023-50125
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA default engineer password set on the Hozard alarm system (Alarmsysteem) v1.0 allows an attacker to bring the alarm system to a disarmed state.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceThe Hozard alarm system v1.0 ships with a default engineer password that cannot be changed or is not prompted to be changed during initial setup. An attacker with knowledge of this default credential can authenticate to the alarm system's management interface and transition the system to a disarmed state, defeating the security purpose of the alarm.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Attempt authentication with default engineer credentialsAccess the Hozard Alarm System management interface (typically web-based on ports 80/443 or a dedicated client) and attempt to log in using the known default engineer credentials. If login succeeds, the default password is still active.Affected if Default engineer credentials successfully authenticate to the management interface
-
Verify first-time password change enforcementDuring a fresh system installation or reset, observe whether the system prompts or requires the user to change the default engineer password before granting full access to system controls.Affected if System allows full access without requiring password change on first use or after factory reset
-
Check system configuration for password policyAccess system settings or configuration files (check documentation for location - typically in system admin panel or config directory) and look for password policy, password change history, or last password update timestamp for the engineer account.Affected if No password change requirement is enforced or no password change timestamp is recorded
-
Review authentication logs for default credential usageExamine system event logs, access logs, or security logs for authentication events. Look for successful logins using the default engineer account that indicate the default password was used.Affected if Logs show recent successful authentication using default credentials without password modification
User is affected if default engineer credentials still provide access to the alarm system management interface or if the system does not enforce changing the default password during initial setup.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataChange the default engineer password immediately upon installation. If the system does not强制要求更改默认密码，联系供应商获取固件更新或配置指南以强制首次使用密码更改。
