⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Full system compromise allowing attackers to modify access control settings, disable security features, or gain physical access to secured areas.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to the management interface leading to configuration changes, privilege escalation, or surveillance of access patterns.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if strong network segmentation and monitoring are in place, though authentication bypass remains possible.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires knowledge of the default credentials but is trivial once known
