CVE-2020-10601 describes a vulnerability in VISAM VBASE Editor version 11.5.0.2 and VBASE Web-Remote Module, stemming from weak hashing algorithms and insecure permissions. This allows a local attacker to bypass password protection via brute-force, cracking, or overwriting password hashes, leading to high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 7.8 HIGH). While no public exploits or active exploitation are reported, and community discussion is minimal, the potential for a local attacker to fully compromise the system remains significant.
