Root command execution via unsanitized CGI parameters
Published Jun 26, 2025 · Updated Dec 23, 2025
Command injection in BEWARD N100 IP Camera firmware M2.1.6.04C014 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands as root. The servetest CGI page embeds ServerName and TimeZone values into backend system calls without neutralizing shell metacharacters. Access to the authenticated web interface is required; successful injection grants complete root control of the camera.
