Vulnerabilities

A configuration file on the local file system had improper input validation which could allow code execution and potentially lead to privilege escalation. This vulnerability can only be exploited if an attacker can log in to the Axis device using SSH.

AXIS Camera Station Pro contained a flaw to perform a privilege escalation attack on the server as a non-admin user.

The VAPIX API mediaclip.cgi that did not have a sufficient input validation allowing for a possible remote code execution. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator- privileged service account.

Netaxis API Orchestrator (APIO) before 0.19.3 allows server side template injection (SSTI).

The ACAP Application framework could allow privilege escalation through a symlink attack. This vulnerability can only be exploited if the Axis device is configured to allow the installation of unsigned ACAP applications, and if an attacker convinces the victim to install a malicious ACAP application.

An ACAP configuration file lacked sufficient input validation, which could allow for arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability can only be exploited if the Axis device is configured to allow the installation of unsigned ACAP applications, and if an attacker convinces the victim to install a malicious ACAP application.

During an internal security assessment, a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allowed an authenticated attacker to access internal resources on the server was discovered.

The communication protocol used between client and server had a flaw that could lead to an authenticated user performing a remote code execution attack.

The communication protocol used between the server process and the service control had a flaw that could lead to a local privilege escalation.

The communication protocol used between client and server had a flaw that could be leveraged to execute a man in the middle attack.

The VAPIX Device Configuration framework allowed a privilege escalation, enabling a lower-privileged user to gain administrator privileges.

Gee-netics, member of AXIS Camera Station Pro Bug Bounty Program, has found that it is possible for a non-admin user to remove system files causing a boot loop by redirecting a file deletion when recording video. Axis has released a patched version for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

During an annual penetration test conducted on behalf of Axis Communications, Truesec discovered a flaw in the VAPIX Device Configuration framework that allowed for unauthenticated username enumeration through the VAPIX Device Configuration SSH Management API.

During an annual penetration test conducted on behalf of Axis Communication, Truesec discovered a flaw in the VAPIX Device Configuration framework that could lead to an incorrect user privilege level in the VAPIX service account D-Bus API.

Seth Fogie, member of AXIS Camera Station Pro Bug Bounty Program, has found that it is possible for an authenticated malicious client to tamper with audit log creation in AXIS Camera Station, or perform a Denial-of-Service attack on the AXIS Camera Station server using maliciously crafted audit log entries. Axis has released a patched version for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Erik de Jong, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX API ftptest.cgi did not have a sufficient input validation allowing for a possible command injection leading to being able to transfer files from/to the Axis device. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an administrator-privileged service account. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Bert Movie Database movie-database allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Movie Database: from n/a through <= 1.0.11.

Amin Aliakbari, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found a broken access control which would lead to less-privileged operator- and/or viewer accounts having more privileges than designed. The risk of exploitation is very low as it requires complex steps to execute, including knowing of account passwords and social engineering attacks in tricking the administrator to perform specific configurations on operator- and/or viewer-privileged accounts. Axis has released patched AXIS OS a version for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Sandro Poppi, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX APIs mediaclip.cgi and playclip.cgi was vulnerable for file globbing which could lead to a resource exhaustion attack. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Vintage, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX API create_overlay.cgi did not have a sufficient input validation allowing for a possible remote code execution. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator-privileged service account. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Brandon Rothel from QED Secure Solutions and Sam Hanson of Dragos have found that the VAPIX API tcptest.cgi did not have a sufficient input validation allowing for a possible remote code execution. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator-privileged service account. The impact of exploiting this vulnerability is lower with operator-privileges compared to administrator-privileges service accounts. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Sandro Poppi, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX API irissetup.cgi was vulnerable to path traversal attacks that allows for file deletion. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator-privileged service account. The impact of exploiting this vulnerability is lower with operator service accounts and limited to non-system files compared to administrator-privileges. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Sandro Poppi, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX API overlay_del.cgi is vulnerable to path traversal attacks that allows for file deletion. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator-privileged service account. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.
