If this password is not changed immediately after deployment, any workload with network access within the cluster could use the default credentials to obtain an authentication token. This token can then be used to perform any operation via NeuVector APIs.\n\nIn earlier versions, NeuVector supports setting the default (bootstrap) password for the `admin` account using a Kubernetes Secret named `neuvector-bootstrap-secret`. This Secret must contain a key named `bootstrapPassword`. However, if NeuVector fails to retrieve this value, it falls back to the fixed default password.\n\n### Patches\n\nThis issue is resolved in NeuVector version **5.4.6** and later. For rolling upgrades, it's strongly recommended to change the default `admin` password to a secure one.\n\nStarting from version **5.4.6**, NeuVector introduces additional Kubernetes RBAC permissions to ensure the bootstrap password can be securely managed via Secrets:\n\n```\nkubectl create role neuvector-binding-secret-controller \\\n  --verb=create,patch,update --resource=secrets -n {neuvector}\n\nkubectl create rolebinding neuvector-binding-secret-controller \\\n  --role=neuvector-binding-secret-controller \\\n  --serviceaccount=neuvector:controller \\\n  --serviceaccount=neuvector:default -n {neuvector}\n```\n\n- These RBAC roles are automatically applied when deploying via Helm.\n- If deploying or upgrading manually, you must create these roles before starting NeuVector.\n\n**NOTE:** If these roles are not present, the NeuVector controller (from version 5.4.6 onward) does not start.\n\n#### Behavior in Patched Versions\n\n- **Upgrades:** NeuVector does not reset any existing account passwords. It's strongly recommended to change the default `admin` password to a secure one.\n- **New deployments:**\n  - If `bootstrapPassword` is not set in the `neuvector-bootstrap-secret, NeuVector generates a secure password and stores it in the same Secret.\n\nOn first login, the default `admin` must retrieve the password using:\n\n```\nkubectl get secret -n {neuvector} neuvector-bootstrap-secret \\\n  -o go-template='{{ .data.bootstrapPassword | base64decode }}{{ \"\\n\" }}'\n```\n\nThe password must be changed during the first login via the NeuVector UI.\n\n**NOTE:** If the default `admin` password is set using a Kubernetes ConfigMap or a persistent backup (not a fixed string), this value takes precedence over the Secret-based mechanism.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nFor existing vulnerable versions, log in to the NeuVector UI immediately after deployment and update the default `admin` password.\n\n### References\n\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n\n- Reach out to the [SUSE Rancher Security team](https://github.com/rancher/rancher/security/policy) for security related inquiries.\n- Open an issue in the [NeuVector](https://github.com/neuvector/neuvector/issues/new/choose) repository.\n- Verify with our [support matrix](https://www.suse.com/suse-neuvector/support-matrix/all-supported-versions/neuvector-v-all-versions/) and [product support lifecycle](https://www.suse.com/lifecycle/#suse-security).","state":0,"publishedAt":"2025-08-28T13:33:36+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-10T03:50:57.9497052+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/neuvector/neuvector","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"kind":"introduced","version":"0"},{"kind":"fixed","version":"0.0.0-20250825191744-da1a462074c3"}]}],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS_V3","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":null,"severity":null},{"system":"Publisher rating","vector":null,"score":null,"severity":"CRITICAL"}],"references":["https://github.com/neuvector/neuvector/security/advisories/GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56","https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-8077","https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2025-8077","https://github.com/neuvector/neuvector"],"sourceUrl":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56","license":"GitHub Advisory Database · CC-BY-4.0","key":"osv:GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56","identifiers":["GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56","CVE-2025-8077","GO-2025-3918"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]},{"revision":"4225c2cab51045dfb97aea9521afe572","observedAt":"2026-10-24T13:19:41.952+00:00","statement":{"source":"osv","id":"GO-2025-3918","aliases":["CVE-2025-8077","GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56"],"title":"NeuVector admin account has insecure default password in github.com/neuvector/neuvector","description":"NeuVector admin account has insecure default password in github.com/neuvector/neuvector.\n\nNOTE: The source advisory for this report contains additional versions that could not be automatically mapped to standard Go module versions.\n\n(If this is causing false-positive reports from vulnerability scanners, please suggest an edit to the report.)\n\nThe additional affected modules and versions are: github.com/neuvector/neuvector from v5.0.0 before v5.4.6.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2025-09-08T14:13:10+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-06-18T22:29:17.7529245+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/neuvector/neuvector","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"kind":"introduced","version":"0"}]}],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://github.com/neuvector/neuvector/security/advisories/GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56"],"sourceUrl":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2025-3918","license":"OSV · upstream source license applies","key":"osv:GO-2025-3918","identifiers":["GO-2025-3918","CVE-2025-8077","GHSA-8pxw-9c75-6w56"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
