CVE-2026-40624Network attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via crafted web request

Published Jun 18, 2026 · Updated Jun 18, 2026

Improper input validation in AVer PTC500S, PTC115, PTC500+, and PTC115+ allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. CISA identifies externally accessible files or directories and a crafted web request, but does not disclose the request path, parameter, or validation failure that reaches code execution. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation gives the attacker code execution on the camera.
