Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Netsweeper versions prior to 4.0.5

Description: The issue concerns a default password set for the branding account in the Web Panel, making it easier for remote attackers to gain access. This can be achieved by sending a request to the "webadmin/" endpoint.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 4.0.5, change the default password of the branding account to prevent unauthorized access. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "webadmin/" endpoint until the default password is changed.
