CVE-2024-52545Known exploitationPublic exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated memory disclosure via unchecked IQ response length

Published Dec 3, 2024 · Updated Dec 3, 2024

Out-of-bounds heap read in 2K Indoor Wi-Fi Security Camera firmware before 2.800.0000000.8.R.20241111 allows remote attackers to disclose memory. MI_IQSERVER_GetApi accepts an unchecked 16-bit max_word value, multiplies it to set out_data.curr_length, and SendResponseData returns that many bytes from a 51,200-byte heap buffer. The IQ service on TCP port 9876 is disabled by default, and exploitation requires starting it through a separate stack overflow; leaked device secrets can support an administrator-password reset.
