CVE-2015-2909Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated DVR access via passwordless network services

Published Feb 6, 2020 · Updated Aug 6, 2024

Missing authentication in Dedicated Micros DV-IP Express, SD Advanced, SD, EcoSense, and DS2 allows remote attackers to access DVR services. The embedded system leaves HTTP, Telnet, and FTP interfaces without authentication by default and relies on a GUI warning to prompt credential setup. Exposure requires absent credentials and a disabled built-in firewall or no upstream firewall, granting access to the DVR and data exposed by its interfaces.
