CVE-2024-12569

Camera credential disclosure via failed-authentication logging

Published Dec 19, 2024 · Updated Aug 28, 2025

Sensitive-information exposure in Milestone XProtect VMS Device Pack before 13.5a allows local users to read camera credentials. Several third-party camera drivers write supplied camera credentials to Recording Server log files when authentication fails. An affected driver, a failed authentication attempt, and local log access are required; the exposed values are reusable camera credentials.
