Intelbras cameras allow unauthenticated firmware updates that cause DoS
Original title: Millions of security cameras at risk: DoS vulnerability in Intelbras devices
A local Wi-Fi attacker can keep cameras offline by repeatedly posting to an unauthenticated upgrade endpoint; firmware R.260804 requires authentication.
Kaspersky found a denial-of-service flaw in Intelbras IP camera firmware. The firmwareUpgrade_service/Demo endpoint accepts an upgrade without authentication or a valid image and reboots the camera. Periodic requests can keep it offline. Intelbras released firmware R.260804 after notification; Kaspersky says the flaw is absent from the latest firmware. MITRE assigned candidate CAN-2026-2035970 and a CVSS 4.0 score of 5.1, pending a final CVE.
Unconfirmed: MITRE has not issued a final CVE; CAN-2026-2035970 remains a candidate identifier.
- Research used firmware v240927 on an iM3B-C camera.
- Intelbras says that firmware also fits iMX C, iM4 C, iM5 SC, iME 360 C, and iM7+ FC.
- One request disrupts a camera for about a minute.
- The new firmware checks cookies and session data before an update.
- Kaspersky published a demonstration that posts firmware to the endpoint.
Impact: Unauthenticated local denial of service via forced reboot
