MEDIUM 5.3EPSS 0.17%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

A credential management flaw in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR® Broker VM causes different Broker VM images to share identical default credentials for internal services. Users knowing these default credentials could access internal services on other Broker VM installations. The attacker must have network access to the Broker VM to exploit this issue.
