A vulnerability found in Dahua NVR/XVR device. A third-party malicious attacker with physical access to the device may gain access to a restricted shell via the serial port, and bypasses the shell's authentication mechanism to escalate privileges.
A vulnerability exists in certain Dahua embedded products. Third-party malicious attacker with obtained normal user credentials could exploit the vulnerability to access certain data which are restricted to admin privileges, such as system-sensitive files through specific HTTP request. This may cause tampering with admin password, leading to privilege escalation. Systems with only admin account are not affected.
A path traversal vulnerability exists in the Dahua Smart Park Integrated Management Platform (also referred to as the Dahua Smart Campus Integrated Management Platform), affecting the SOAP-based GIS bitmap upload interface. The flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to upload arbitrary files to the server via crafted SOAP requests, including executable JSP payloads. Successful exploitation may lead to remote code execution (RCE) and full compromise of the affected system. The vulnerability is presumed to affect builds released prior to September 2023 and is said to be remediated in newer versions of the product, though the exact affected range remains undefined. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-02-15 UTC.
A command injection vulnerability in Dahua EIMS versions prior to 2240008 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via the capturehandle.action interface. The flaw stems from improper input validation in the captureCommand parameter, which is processed without sanitization or authentication. By sending crafted HTTP requests, attackers can inject OS-level commands that are executed on the server, leading to full system compromise. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-04-06 UTC.
An SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Dahua Smart Cloud Gateway Registration Management Platform via the username parameter in the /index.php/User/doLogin endpoint. The application fails to properly sanitize user input, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL statements and potentially disclose sensitive information. Exploitation evidence was observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2025-02-05 UTC.
A vulnerability was found in Dahua IPC-HFW1200S, IPC-HFW2300R-Z, IPC-HFW5220E-Z and IPC-HDW1200S up to 20241222. It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file ../mtd/Config/Sha1Account1 of the component Web Interface. The manipulation leads to path traversal: '../filedir'. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
Dahua IP cameras and related products contain an authentication bypass vulnerability when the loopback device is specified by the client during authentication.
Dahua IP cameras and related products contain an authentication bypass vulnerability when the NetKeyboard type argument is specified by the client during authentication.
Some products of Dahua have Denial of Service vulnerabilities. After the successful login of the legal account, the attacker sends a specific log query command, which may cause the device to go down.
Some Dahua products have buffer overflow vulnerabilities. After the successful login of the legal account, the attacker sends a specific DDNS test command, which may cause the device to go down.
The Amcrest IP2M-841B V2.520.AC00.18.R, Dahua IPC-XXBXX V2.622.0000000.9.R, Dahua IPC HX5X3X and HX4X3X V2.800.0000008.0.R, Dahua DH-IPC HX883X and DH-IPC-HX863X V2.622.0000000.7.R, Dahua DH-SD4XXXXX V2.623.0000000.7.R, Dahua DH-SD5XXXXX V2.623.0000000.1.R, Dahua DH-SD6XXXXX V2.640.0000000.2.R and V2.623.0000000.1.R, Dahua NVR5XX-4KS2 V3.216.0000006.0.R, Dahua NVR4XXX-4KS2 V3.216.0000006.0.R, and NVR2XXX-4KS2 do not require authentication to access the HTTP endpoint /videotalk. An unauthenticated, remote person can connect to this endpoint and potentionally listen to the audio of the capturing device.
