Termlink being used to force a memory dump and hack the terminal
RobCo Termlink is a protocol of the Unified Operating System, used to log into the system and recover lost passwords.
Background[]
Termlink is a basic program allowing for rudimentary interaction with a given computer system. Apart from logging in, it also allows anyone with a rudimentary understanding of IT to force a reboot in maintenance mode and create a memory dump including the password for the terminal. This security loophole is prevalent in all terminals using the UOS.
Error codes[]
In case the protocol encounters an error, it will display an error code.
