dasdec_mkuser on the Digital Alert Systems DASDEC EAS device before 2.0-2 and the Monroe Electronics R189 One-Net EAS device before 2.0-2 generates predictable passwords, which might make it easier for attackers to obtain non-administrative access via unspecified vectors.
Security readout for executives and security teams
This issue affects certain Emergency Alert System appliances that could create predictable user passwords. If an attacker can reach the device through unspecified means, they may gain non-administrative access. For organizations relying on these systems, the business concern is unauthorized access to alerting infrastructure, not confirmed public exploitation. Exposure is most likely in organizations operating DASDEC or Monroe R189 One-Net EAS devices on firmware before 2.0-2. The provided affected-product data is incomplete, so validation should rely on device model, firmware version, and vendor documentation. Treat this as high priority where EAS devices are still deployed and reachable. The likely impact is unauthorized access to operational alerting equipment. Focus first on inventory, firmware status, credential hygiene, and network restriction. Mitigation focus: Identify DASDEC and Monroe R189 One-Net EAS devices in inventory.; Check vendor guidance for fixed firmware and supported upgrade paths.; Prioritize systems running versions before 2.0-2..

CWE-330: Exact CWE lookup
Use the exact CWE identifier as the starting point before reviewing related ATT&CK behavior. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Use of Insufficiently Random Values
Use of Insufficiently Random Values represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
