critical Nessus Plugin ID 210334

Synopsis

A camera is affected by a multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

A PTZOptics camera is vulnerable to CVE-2024-8956 and, therefore, is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- PTZOptics PT30X-SDI/NDI-xx before firmware 6.3.40 is vulnerable to an insufficient authentication issue. The camera does not properly enforce authentication to /cgi-bin/param.cgi when requests are sent without an HTTP Authorization header. The result is a remote and unauthenticated attacker can leak sensitive data such as usernames, password hashes, and configurations details. Additionally, the attacker can update individual configuration values or overwrite the whole file. (CVE-2024-8956)

- PTZOptics PT30X-SDI/NDI-xx before firmware 6.3.40 is vulnerable to an OS command injection issue. The camera does not sufficiently validate the ntp_addr configuration value which may lead to arbitrary command execution when ntp_client is started. When chained with CVE-2024-8956, a remote and unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands on affected devices. (CVE-2024-8957)

Solution

Upgrade to the latest available PTZOptics camera firmware.
