Foscam C1 Hardcoded FTP Credentials (CVE-2016-8731)

medium Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 700147

Synopsis

NNM observed at least one authentication session originating from this client address.

Description

Foscam C1 IP Camera installs with hardcoded default FTP user credentials. The 'r' account has a password of 'r'. This allows a remote attacker to trivially access the FTP service on port 50021 and gain access to the mounted Micro-SD card.

Solution

Exploitation relies on the availability of port 50021. Preventing access to this port or disabling FTP completely will help mitigate this vulnerability.
