CVE-2026-124012 Dixell/Copeland XWEB EVO Hardcoded Administrator Daily Password Authentication Bypass

9.2 criticalEPSS 0.6%

Critical (9.2) in copeland xweb evo. EPSS 0.6% estimated probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.

On this page
XWEB EVO 5.6.2 through 5.8.8 contains a hardcoded credential vulnerability where the Administrator web account is configured to use password_mode daily_password with no stored password, as the Users.authenticate function in lualib_users.lua synthesizes the Administrator configuration without validating any stored secret. Attackers who can derive the MAC-based daily password can authenticate as Administrator to obtain a full admin session on the device. This product line reached it's end of service date in March 2026.
