**Default Creds** is a centralized, community-driven repository of factory-set credentials. Designed for pentesters and security researchers, it helps identify weak access points during engagement phases or audit internal infrastructure before they become a security liability.

**Live Instance:** [default-creds.hadi.icu](https://default-creds.hadi.icu)

**API Documentation:** [default-creds.hadi.icu/api-docs](https://default-creds.hadi.icu/api-docs)

## 🎯 The Mission

In the world of cybersecurity, "low-hanging fruit" often comes in the form of unchanged default passwords. Our mission is to provide a fast, reliable, and searchable database of these credentials to help security professionals secure systems before attackers exploit them.

## ⚙️ How it Works

This application is built with **Astro** and **Svelte 5** for maximum performance. It operates as a "Flat-File Database":

1. **YAML Powered:** All credentials are stored as structured `.yaml` files in the `src/data/` directory.
2. **Real-time Search:** The API parses these files on-the-fly (or via build cache) to provide instant results based on service names, versions, or tags.
3. **Developer Friendly:** A public API is available to integrate these credentials into your own automated scanning tools.

## 🤝 Community Driven & Contributing

Security is a collective effort. This project only grows as the community discovers and adds new default configurations.

- **Want to add an app?** Just create a new YAML file in `src/data/`.
- **Found a mistake?** Submit a Pull Request to update existing entries.

Before contributing, please read our [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for guidelines on how to format your YAML files.
