CVE-2017-7576 describes a critical vulnerability in DragonWave Horizon 1.01.03 wireless radios, where hardcoded vendor credentials (e.g., username "energetic", password "wireless") allow unauthorized access via the web interface or TELNET. This vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
