Device reboot via buffer double free
Published Oct 25, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025
Double free in the web interface of Abode Systems iota All-In-One Security Kit 6.9X and 6.9Z allows remote attackers to reboot the device. The web_ipcam_set_param_post handler frees its request buffer and then passes the same pointer to a std::vector destructor, which dereferences and frees it again. The local web interface is disabled by default and must be enabled, and the crafted request must pass HTTP authentication; exploitation crashes hpgw and triggers a watchdog reset.
