Creating a key generator to reset a Hikvision IP camera's admin password

Unfortunately, generic IP cameras are notorious for their poor security practices. Most of the time, the manufacturers don't force secure passwords, and more often than not you can sign in with default passwords. Some do, though - one of these manufacturers is Hikvision. Upon logging in for the first time with the password 12345, it forces you to change it. Is this enough to stop attackers from accessing the device? Turns out it isn't.
