Nearby traffic interception via immutable default Wi-Fi password
Published Mar 3, 2025 · Updated Mar 3, 2025
Use of a default password in i11 and i12 Firmware 20250227 allows physically proximate attackers to intercept dashcam Wi-Fi traffic. The Wi-Fi password is fixed, cannot be changed, and is publicly known, reducing the documented password-plus-device-pairing design to one effective factor. The attacker must be near the dashcam and connect to its wireless network; the reported consequence is traffic interception, not configuration changes or service interruption.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
