"A local attacker who is a member of the 'superadmin' group can
reset the password of any LARM user on a LOYTEC L-IP BACnet/IP
router, including the 'larmapp' service account, via the
'set-passwd' subcommand of the '/usr/bin/ltsudo' utility. This
bypasses the authorization checks that should limit password
resets to the account's own owner.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
