⚠️ Here’s a head-scratcher: files can be uploaded and executed on WebAccess/NMS versions before 3.0.2, just like letting someone sneak in a cake without checking the ingredients. 🎂 Think of it as a restaurant that lets diners bring in their own dishes. If the staff never checks what's being brought in, someone could slip in something dangerous that spoils the whole meal! An attacker could upload harmful files that may lead to data breaches or service disruption, essentially turning your system into a playground for mischief! Imagine the chaos if that cake was filled with something toxic; it could sour the whole party!
