Versions of the Cisco Application Velocity System (AVS) prior to software version AVS 5.1.0 do not prompt users to modify system account passwords during the initial configuration process. Because there is no requirement to change these credentials during the initial configuration process, an attacker may be able to leverage the accounts that have default credentials, some of which have root privileges, to take full administrative control of the AVS system.
