The Botslab G980H dash camera firmware contains a hard-coded root account password that cannot be changed by the user. This vulnerability allows an attacker with physical access or the firmware image to recover the root credentials and gain root access via the UART interface. The issue affects specific firmware versions and has a high severity rating.
