Hierbei geht es um eine nicht exakt ausgemachte Funktion der Datei rgbin der Komponente UART Port. Durch das Manipulieren mit unbekannten Daten kann eine hard-coded credentials-Schwachstelle ausgenutzt werden. Ein Angriff setzt physischen Zugriff auf dem Zielobjekt voraus. Der Exploit steht zur \u00f6ffentlichen Verf\u00fcgung."
