It is a very unsafe design to have the switch listen to every VLAN that's configured as untagged in one of its physical ports for its web management.

If things like adding a strict management VLAN or https would be soooooo easy as many of the idea-makers it would have happened years ago already.
PS. Instead of open yet another duplicate idea, one could follow up the existing ones, comment, and vote up...
