CVE-2022-38970Network attack vector

Direct camera access via predictable device identifiers

Published Sep 26, 2022 · Updated May 21, 2025

Incorrect access control in ieGeek IG20 hipcam RealServer 1.0 allows remote attackers to connect directly to arbitrary cameras. The iLnkP2P device-ID generator produces predictable UIDs, allowing a calculated identifier to address a device without discovery. The scored access path requires high privileges; successful exploitation establishes a direct device connection, with no availability impact reported.
