CVE-2026-54554: FOG Project unauthenticated default password disclosure

CVE-2026-54554 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-10-14

FOG is an open-source system for device cloning, imaging, and inventory management. Prior to version 1.5.10.1870, the administrative iPXE management interface did not require authentication and exposed the default Active Directory join password to anyone accessing it over the network. An attacker with network access could obtain this credential without logging in, potentially compromising domain-joined systems.

Vendors: FOG Project.

Technical details

The adInfo() endpoint in fogpage.class.php returned the FOG_AD_DEFAULT_PASSWORD value in the domainpass JSON field and was accessible via node=ipxe without an authenticated session due to improper allowlist configuration. The management and iPXE interfaces both had inconsistent authentication gates. An unauthenticated network attacker could directly retrieve the domain-join credential used by the Active Directory configuration, affecting all hosts configured through this interface.
