Description
A command injection vulnerability in Dahua EIMS versions prior to 2240008 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via the capture_handle.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.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a command injection flaw in Dahua EIMS versions before 2240008. It allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands on the server by sending specially crafted HTTP requests to the capture_handle.action interface. The issue arises because the captureCommand parameter is not properly validated or sanitized, enabling attackers to inject OS-level commands that the server executes.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to full system compromise since attackers can execute arbitrary commands on the affected server without authentication. This could result in unauthorized access, data theft, system manipulation, or disruption of services.
