What it is

🚨 A local attacker can break out of Kiosk Mode in Bosch Recording Station and waltz right into the operating system! 🔥 Think of Kiosk Mode as a pop-up shop in a mall that blocks off access to the rest of the stores. If someone can sneak behind the counter, they can access everything in the mall, including all the goodies that shouldn’t be available to them! This means an attacker could potentially manipulate system settings, access sensitive data, or even install malicious software. With a CVSS score of 9.3, this is absolutely devastating — it’s like handing over the keys to your entire operation!
