Overview

HP/Compaq Insight Manager on 2301/2381 manages older HP/Compaq servers. On dated kit it’s default creds and a CVE buffet.

Enumeration

Hit the management homepage:

curl -sk https://<TARGET>:2381/ | grep -i version

Try default creds, then map the version to known CVEs.

Hardening

Update or retire the agent, change default credentials, and restrict the management ports to an admin network.
