AVTECH IP Cameras are widely used in surveillance systems for both residential and commercial applications. These cameras are often installed in critical infrastructure, government buildings, and public spaces to ensure security. System administrators and IT professionals rely on AVTECH cameras for continuous monitoring. The cameras are accessible remotely via web interfaces and APIs, enabling real-time viewing and configuration. Due to their wide deployment, vulnerabilities in these systems pose significant security risks.
The AVTECH IP Camera has a command injection vulnerability in the /cgi-bin/supervisor/Factory.cgi
endpoint. This flaw allows an attacker to inject malicious commands into the system via the action
parameter. If successfully exploited, it enables remote code execution, granting attackers control over the device. This vulnerability requires minimal privileges for exploitation.
The command injection occurs in the /cgi-bin/supervisor/Factory.cgi
endpoint, where the action
parameter is improperly sanitized. Attackers can craft a malicious request by embedding shell commands in the action
parameter. The system then processes these commands as part of its function, allowing arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability is classified under CWE-77 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command), making it a critical threat to affected systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the camera's operating system. This could lead to device compromise, allowing attackers to manipulate the camera, disable recording, or even pivot to other devices on the network. In severe cases, this flaw could be exploited to launch broader attacks, including botnet recruitment or data exfiltration.
