High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.98%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
The Motorola ACE1000 RTU through 2022-05-02 ships with a hardcoded SSH private key and initialization scripts (such as /etc/init.d/sshd_service) only generate a new key if no private-key file exists. Thus, this hardcoded key is likely to be used by default.
