F5 Device Default Support Password Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment This F5 Networks system still has the default password set for the support user account. This account normally provides read/write access to the web configuration utility. A possible hacker could take advantage of this to reconfigure your systems and possibly gain shell access to the system with super-user rights. Solution: Remove the support account entirely or change the password of this account to something that is difficult to guess.
