Unauthenticated remote code execution via brightness parameter injection
Published Aug 2, 2024 · Updated Jan 9, 2025
Command injection in AVTECH AVM1203 IP Camera firmware through FullImg-1023-1007-1011-1009 allows remote attackers to execute code. The brightness function in /cgi-bin/supervisor/Factory.cgi accepts attacker-controlled command text through the action parameter and executes it with the web process owner's privileges. Authentication is not required; successful exploitation grants control of the camera and has been used to install a Mirai variant.
