This could allow an attacker to reverse-engineer the password from available versions to gain authenticated access to the device.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.51%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
