A malicious user with the knowledge of the default passwords may potentially log in to the system and gain read and write access to certain system files.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.77%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
