Hardcoded credentials are used in specific BD Pyxis products. If exploited, threat actors may be able to gain access to the underlying file system and could potentially exploit application files for information that could be used to decrypt application credentials or gain access to electronic protected health information (ePHI) or other sensitive information.

Specific BD Pyxis™ products were installed with default credentials and may presently still operate with these credentials. There may be scenarios where BD Pyxis™ products are installed with the same default local operating system credentials or domain-joined server(s) credentials that may be shared across product types. If exploited, threat actors may be able to gain privileged access to the underlying file system and could potentially exploit or gain access to ePHI or other sensitive information.

In BD Pyxis MedStation ES System v1.6.1 and Pyxis Anesthesia (PAS) ES System v1.6.1, a restricted desktop environment escape vulnerability exists in the kiosk mode functionality of affected devices. Specially crafted inputs could allow the user to escape the restricted environment, resulting in access to sensitive data.
