CVE-2026-26218

The database initialization script (schema) included in the Newbee-Mall project automatically creates administrator accounts with predictable, default passwords. If the administrator deploying the application does not change these login credentials after initialization or database reset, the accounts remain active with factory credentials. An attacker, knowing the predictable login data (hard-coded in the public repository), can log in as an administrator without any prior knowledge of the target environment.

The attacker gains full administrative privileges in the application, allowing arbitrary data modification, user account takeover, and manipulation of the entire e-commerce platform.

Default passwords for all predefined administrator accounts must be changed immediately after each initialization or database reset. It is recommended to review all active administrative accounts and enforce strong, unique passwords. Apply patches available from the vendor according to references.
