Android-based mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) terminals process an enormous amount of transactions daily, yet what if we told you that:
* Some devices can be rooted using exploits from 2019, which only require brief physical access

* Debug access can be obtained by simply asking nicely
* TLS vulnerabilities are rampant on these devices, if it's even used!
