Summary: Professional FM transmitters.

Desc: The transmitter has a hidden super administrative account 'factory'
that has the hardcoded password 'inokram25' that allows full access to
the web management interface configuration. The factory account is not
visible in the users page of the application and the password cannot be
changed through any normal operation of the device. The backdoor lies in
the /js_files/LogIn_local.js script file. Attackers could exploit this
vulnerability by logging in using the backdoor credentials for the web
panel gaining also additional functionalities including: unit configuration,
parameter modification, EEPROM overwrite, clearing DB, and factory log
modification.
