DescriptionA provisioning script used when installing HIPASE-250 (formerly 250 SCALA) engineering workstations sets a fixed, hard-coded x11vnc password. Because the same credential is applied to every workstation provisioned this way, an attacker with adjacent-network access who knows the password can gain VNC access to affected workstations.
