CVE-2024-11120Known exploitationPublic exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via unfiltered NTP address

Published Nov 15, 2024 · Updated Oct 21, 2025

OS command injection in all versions of five EOL GeoVision appliances allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands. The DateSetting.cgi handler passes the unfiltered szSrvIpAddr NTP-server value to a command context, where shell metacharacters trigger injected commands. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful requests grant command execution with the appliance process's privileges.
