Hi,
we've pentested some Alcatel OmniPCX Enterprise 6.0 and we found default
accounts/passwd (mtcl/mtcl, root/letacla).
Don't know if they were an upgrade to the old PABX4400 or fresh
installations...
Anyway, ALCATEL should strongly consider to implement a "start up"
procedure to force password changing for default accounts.
My 2 cents.
Regards,

At that time a major effort has been made on security aspects with a lot of hardening being performed on the operating system (Linux), the run-time environment and offered services, selection and configuration of applications running on this platform.
