Operator-to-Administrator escalation via account overwrite
Published Mar 30, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Privilege escalation in INSMA Wifi Mini Spy 1080P HD Security IP Camera 1.9.7 B allows remote authenticated users to gain administrator access. The /goform/formUserMng handler accepts an Operator's form values and overwrites the user1 account with group 2, which the device treats as the administrator group. Operator credentials are required; guest credentials cannot reach the behavior, and exploitation replaces the first account with attacker-chosen administrator credentials.
