Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.33%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Due to unencrypted and unauthenticated data communication, the wireless presenter Inateck WP1001 v1.3C is prone to keystroke injection attacks. Thus, an attacker is able to send arbitrary keystrokes to a victim's computer system, e.g., to install malware when the target system is unattended. In this way, an attacker can remotely take control over the victim's computer that is operated with an affected receiver of this device.
