CWE-798 Use of Hard-coded Credentials
Zingbox Inspector, version 1.295 and later.
In the normal course of operation, Zingbox Inspector automatically updates its own software, and a fixed version of software has already been made available. No user action is required unless the software is unable to update itself. Customers still running affected versions of Zingbox Inspector software can mitigation this issue by updating to a patched version, or by manually running the command "passwd" to change the password for the inspector/root users. See product documentation for more information on how to change passwords for system users.
