Published Jul 31, 2024 · Updated Mar 27, 2025
Denial of service in Dahua NVR4XXX firmware built before December 13, 2023 allows remote authenticated users to crash the device. The vendor identifies only an unspecified network interface that mishandles a crafted data packet and has not disclosed the packet format or faulty code path. Administrator credentials are required, and successful exploitation interrupts recorder service by crashing the appliance without reported data access or modification.
