<p>From Oracle.com "Oracle Exadata is the only database machine that 
provides extreme performance for both data warehousing and OLTP
applications, making it the ideal platform for consolidating on private 
clouds. It is a complete package of servers, storage, networking, 
and software that is massively scalable, secure, and redundant. With 
Oracle Exadata customers can reduce IT costs through consolidation, 
store up to ten times more data, improve performance of all 
applications, deliver a faster time-to-market by eliminating systems 
integration 
trial and error, and make better business decisions in real time."

</p>
<p>The oracle engineered solution contains two leaf switches and in 
larger installations a spine switch.  The installation I worked with 
didn't
have a spine switch, but the two leaf switches were configured with 
three logins with easily guessable passwords and a shadow file
that was world readable.
</p>
<p>There are three accounts with easily guessable default passwords on the 
exadata inifiniband switches:
</p>
<p>ilom-admin,ilom-operator and nm2user.<br>
passwords are same as logins</p>
rux0r:~ meep0$ ssh ilom-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx "cat /conf/shadow"

<p>The shadow file is world readable:
</p>
<p>[root@exad-1swib2 ~]# ls -l /conf/shadow
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 749 Dec 23  2011 /conf/shadow
</p>
<p>Vendor: notified 3/12/2012</p>
<p>Oracle pointed me at a doc stating you should rotate these passwords
after installation (as far as I recall these engineer solutions are 
configured/installed by Oracle professional services onsite.).  They 
also weren't concerned about the lax permissions of /conf/shadow.</p><p>

I don't know of any other Exadata installations where I could verify this 
Engineered solution is deployed this way by default. </p><p>

If others can confirm, might be neat to add these login credentials to 
metasploit.
