CVE-2019-25279 describes a cleartext password storage vulnerability in FaceSentry Access Control System 6.4.8 and its firmware, where unencrypted credentials are stored in the device's SQLite database. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 7.5) allows unauthenticated attackers to directly read sensitive login information from /faceGuard/database/FaceSentryWeb.sqlite. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been observed, the direct access to credentials poses a significant compromise risk.
