Fonality · Fonality · CVE-2016-2362
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Fonality versions 12.6 through 14.1i
**Description**
The issue is related to a hardcoded password for the FTP account in the Fonality software, allowing remote attackers to gain access via FTP or SSH connections. This can enable unauthorized access to protected information.
**Recommendations**
For versions 12.6 through 14.1i, update the software to a version released after 2016-06-01 to remove the hardcoded password. As a temporary workaround, consider changing the FTP account password to a unique and secure value until a patched version is available. Restrict access to FTP and SSH connections to minimize the risk of exploitation.
