CVE-2017-11693: MEDHOST Document Management System contains hard-coded credentials that are used for customer database access.

MEDHOST Document Management System contains hard-coded credentials that are used for customer database access. An attacker with knowledge of the hard-coded credentials and the ability to communicate directly with the database may be able to obtain or modify sensitive patient and financial information. PostgreSQL is used as the Document Management System database. The account name is dms. The password is hard-coded throughout the application, and is the same across all installations. Customers do not have the option to change passwords. The dms account for PostgreSQL has access to the database schema for Document Management System.

Security readout for executives and security teams

MEDHOST Document Management System used the same hard-coded database password across installations. If an attacker can reach the PostgreSQL database and knows the shared credential, they may read or change sensitive patient and financial records. The public sources do not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed exploitation evidence. Most exposed environments are MEDHOST Document Management System deployments where the PostgreSQL database is reachable beyond tightly controlled application hosts or administrative networks. Prioritize as high where MEDHOST DMS is present and database access is not tightly isolated. The weakness can affect patient and financial data confidentiality and integrity, but evidence is incomplete on patch status and exploitation. Mitigation focus: Check MEDHOST guidance for supported remediation or upgrade options.; Restrict PostgreSQL access to required application hosts only.; Block direct database access from user, guest, and internet-facing networks..
