Authenticated code execution via restored alert path

Published Feb 6, 2024 · Updated Aug 26, 2024

Code injection in iSpyConnect iSpy (Agent DVR) 5.1.6.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary files through backup restoration. The restore workflow accepts an objects.xml file whose EXE parameter redirects an alert command to an unrestricted filesystem path. Dashboard access and a configured alert command are required; the selected file runs with the Agent DVR service account, reported as root by default.
