123456 was both the username & password, they were hit by CWE-1392 because someone failed to change the default credentials.

The writeup never claimed that 123456:123456 were default credentials?

    > During a cursory security review of a few hours, we identified two serious issues: the McHire administration interface for restaurant owners accepted the default credentials 123456:123456, and an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) on an internal API allowed us to access any contacts and chats we wanted. Together they allowed us and anyone else with a McHire account and access to any inbox to retrieve the personal data of more than 64 million applicants.
