Due to a reliance on client-side authentication, the WiFi Mouse (Mouse Server) from Necta LLCs authentication mechanism is trivially bypassed, which can result in remote code execution.

Weakness

A client/server product performs authentication within client code but not in server code, allowing server-side authentication to be bypassed via a modified client that omits the authentication check.
