Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects some Dahua products where an attacker may obtain the device’s CA root certificate.

If the compromised CA root certificate is installed and trusted on client systems, the attacker could issue fraudulent certificates that those clients would trust.

This undermines the certificate trust chain, potentially allowing malicious activities that rely on trusted certificates.

Impact Analysis

If an attacker obtains the CA root certificate from a vulnerable Dahua device and that certificate is trusted on your client systems, they could create fraudulent certificates.

These fraudulent certificates could be used to impersonate legitimate services or devices, potentially leading to man-in-the-middle attacks or unauthorized access.

However, the vulnerability has a low severity score (CVSS 2.3), indicating the impact might be limited or require specific conditions.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, Dahua recommends downloading the corresponding fix software or updating to the latest version of the affected products.

This applies especially to certain IPC models with build times prior to April 15, 2026.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows an attacker to obtain the device’s CA root certificate, which could enable the issuance of fraudulent certificates trusted by client systems. Such a compromise of the certificate trust chain can undermine the security of communications and data integrity.

While the CVE description and resources do not explicitly mention compliance with standards like GDPR or HIPAA, the ability to issue fraudulent certificates and compromise trust chains could potentially lead to violations of data protection and security requirements mandated by these regulations.

Organizations relying on affected Dahua products should consider the risk of unauthorized access or data interception due to this vulnerability, which may impact their compliance posture and require remediation to maintain regulatory compliance.
