What is CVE-2015-6316?

The default configuration of the sshd_config file in Cisco Mobility Services Engine version 8.0.120.7 permits logins using the oracle account. This creates a significant security risk as attackers can exploit this setting to gain unauthorized SSH access by entering a hardcoded password specifically associated with this account. This vulnerability highlights the importance of secure configurations and the need for proper credential management to prevent potential remote attacks.
