| Title: | Insecure default FTP password in VTC iCafe |

| Severity: | Critical |
| Reporter: | Blue Moon Consulting |

| Fixed in: | -- |
VTC iCafe is an internet cafe management application. It uses a hardcoded insecure default FTP password VTCIntecom / VTCIntecom. The FTP server listens on port 6655 and distributes update files to the clients. A malicious user could use this knowledge to a) cause a denial of services on the clients by removing the FTP root directory, or b) place malwares such as virus, trojan on the client by replacing the update files.
There is no workaround.
There is no fix at the moment. Customers are advised to contact the vendor for a proper fix.
Blue Moon Consulting adapts RFPolicy v2.0 in notifying vendors.
