 The following are **not** vulnerabilities, by design:
 
-- Plaintext OTA on a device with no `encryption:` block. That is the
-  documented default, authenticated (if at all) by the OTA password.
-- The enablement window: turning encryption on takes one last upload of the
-  encryption-enabled firmware over the existing plaintext channel, with the
-  pre-existing plaintext exposure.
-- The web OTA `/update` endpoint alongside encryption. The `web_server`
-  component keeps it always reachable, and `captive_portal:` auto-loads it
-  for the fallback AP window; validation warns about both combinations, and
-  the operator keeps the recovery path.
+- Plaintext OTA on a device with no `ota: encryption:` block, including one
+  that offers encryption because it has an api key. That is the documented
+  default, authenticated (if at all) by the OTA password. An uploader that
+  takes the offer skips the password; the key authenticates it. With a
+  runtime provisioned key and no `provisioning:` window, whoever provisions
+  the key gains that upload path too; validation warns about the pair.
+- The CLI plaintext fallback until 2027.3.0: without `ota: encryption:` an
+  active attacker who strips the offer or breaks the handshake can make a
+  keyed CLI upload plaintext, with the pre-existing plaintext exposure. A
+  device that requires encryption still refuses that upload.
+- The enablement window: firmware built with a static api key already offers
+  encryption, so turning on `ota: encryption:` is itself an encrypted upload.
+  Older firmware needs one last plaintext upload of an offering build, with
+  the pre-existing plaintext exposure.
+- The web OTA `/update` endpoint alongside encryption. With the `web_server`
+  or `prometheus` component the shared listener is always up, so the endpoint
+  stays reachable and validation warns about that combination;
+  `captive_portal:` alone brings the listener up only for the fallback AP
+  window, which is the intended recovery path, so that is not warned about.
 - CLI retry behavior on transport or MAC failures; every attempt renegotiates
   a fresh handshake with fresh ephemerals, so retrying does not weaken
   authentication.
