CVSS v3.1
9.8
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Uniview IP Camera versions prior to the fixed version
Description
The issue concerns an undocumented UDP service on port 7788 that allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to overflow an internal buffer and achieve code execution. By exploiting this buffer overflow, a remote attacker can start the telnetd service, which has a hardcoded default username and password (root/123456). Although the telnetd service has a restrictive shell, it can be easily bypassed via the built-in ECHO shell command.
Recommendations
For Uniview IP Camera, update to a version that fixes the undocumented UDP service vulnerability on port 7788 to prevent buffer overflow and code execution.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the telnetd service until a patch is available.
Restrict access to the UDP port 7788 to minimize the risk of exploitation.
