Administrator control via unauthenticated account management
Published Jan 29, 2026 · Updated Jan 29, 2026
Missing authentication in Kiloview Encoder Series firmware allows remote attackers to create or delete administrator accounts. CISA and Kiloview have not published the affected management endpoint or the authentication check omitted when account operations are processed. Network reachability to the web-managed appliance is sufficient; successful exploitation grants full administrative control, while the affected hardware remains end-of-life.
