: PTZOptics PT30X-SDI/NDI-xx cameras running firmware versions before 6.3.40 are vulnerable to an OS command injection (OSCI) attack. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to remotely execute arbitrary commands on the device.
Platform: PTZOptics PT30X-SDI/NDI-xx
Version: Before 6.3.40
Vulnerability: OS Command Injection (CVE-2024-8957)
Severity: HIGH (CVSS: 7.2)
Date: September 17, 2024 (reported)
What Undercode Says:
This vulnerability is critical because it allows an attacker to take complete control of the affected camera. An attacker could use this vulnerability to:
Steal sensitive data from the camera, such as usernames, passwords, and configuration details.
Disrupt the operation of the camera by modifying its settings.
Use the camera as a launchpad for attacks on other devices on the network.
Recommendations:
Update all PTZOptics PT30X-SDI/NDI-xx cameras to firmware version 6.3.40 or later.
Implement strong network security measures to prevent unauthorized access to your cameras.
Additional Notes:
This vulnerability is chained with another vulnerability (CVE-2024-8956) that allows an attacker to bypass authentication. This makes it even more critical to update your cameras as soon as possible.
There is no indication that this vulnerability is currently being exploited in the wild. However, it is important to patch your cameras as soon as possible to reduce your risk.
