CVE-2026-54218: CWE-321 Use of hard-coded cryptographic key in Tobit Laboratories AG TeamDavid
Use of hard-coded cryptographic key vulnerability in Tobit Laboratories AG TeamDavid's Webbox. For users created locally in David, passwords are stored in various files using only obfuscation. Any user with access to the server’s file system, or who can otherwise extract files from the server (see vulnerability “Random File Read”), can potentially obtain affected users’ passwords. This issue affects TeamDavid before Rollout 528. Starting with Rollout 528 (June 30, 2026), the affected functionality is disabled by default and the vulnerabilities are therefore no longer exposed through this functionality.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves the use of a hard-coded cryptographic key in TeamDavid's Webbox, leading to weak protection of locally created user passwords. Passwords are stored in various files using only obfuscation rather than secure encryption. If an attacker gains access to the server's file system or can extract files (e.g., via a related 'Random File Read' vulnerability), they can potentially recover user passwords. The issue affects TeamDavid versions through Rollout 524. There is no vendor advisory indicating a patch or fix at this time.
Potential Impact
An attacker with access to the server file system or the ability to extract files can potentially obtain user passwords stored with weak obfuscation. This compromises user credential confidentiality and may lead to unauthorized access. The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.8 reflects high severity due to network attack vector, no privileges required, and high impact on confidentiality.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the server file system and monitor for unauthorized file extraction attempts to reduce risk.
