DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in multiple TANDBERG products,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

root user account with a blank password, which is used for advanced
debugging. This can be exploited to gain administrative access to the
device.
NOTE: The root account cannot be disabled and is not the same as the
admin account.
The security issue is reported in versions prior to TC 4.0.0 in the
following products:
* TANDBERG C Series Endpoints
* TANDBERG E/EX Personal Video
