CVE-2016-1491
The Wifi hotspot in Lenovo SHAREit before 3.2.0 for Windows, when configured to receive files, has a hardcoded password of 12345678, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access by leveraging a position within the WLAN coverage area.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.49%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
