6.9.1 to 6.11.5: I had blank root password

I took the plunge and updated from 6.9.1 to 6.11.5. It took awhile for WebUI to finally load, but it is up. All else appears normal: dockers are up, SMBs are up, SSH is working, etc. 

 

I had a blank root password (I know, I know, I live my life dangerously). 

 

The new login screen does not let me login with root//*blank*. Says password cannot be blank. 

 

Can I just add a password to root user via command-line? OR What do I need to do?
