AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, restrict network access to the affected APIs and monitor for unauthorized access attempts. Avoid deploying vulnerable versions in production environments.

Description

NextScan versions 1.1.0 through 1.2.0 contain hardcoded HTTP Basic Authentication credentials in specific routers, allowing unauthenticated attackers to access protected APIs. Exploitation enables attackers to retrieve sensitive configuration data such as Redis passwords, etcd details, and server tokens, and to impersonate scan nodes by interacting with registration, heartbeat, and logging endpoints.
