Scytl · Scytl Svote · CVE-2019-25021
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Scytl sVote version 2.1
**Description**
An issue was discovered due to the implementation of the database manager, allowing an attacker to access the OrientDB by providing `admin` as the admin password. A different password cannot be set because of the implementation in code.
**Recommendations**
For Scytl sVote version 2.1, consider changing the default admin password to a unique and strong password as soon as possible. However, since the code implementation does not allow setting a different password, as a temporary workaround, restrict access to the OrientDB to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
