Executive Summary

GeoVision GV-LPC2211 V1.13 has a flaw in BKDownloadLink.cgi that fails to properly restrict filenames. This allows an authenticated remote user to read any file accessible to the root-run web service by supplying a specially crafted filename.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check for unauthorized file access attempts via BKDownloadLink.cgi. Monitor web server logs for suspicious requests containing path traversal patterns like '../' or absolute file paths. Test the endpoint manually by sending crafted requests with file paths to see if sensitive files are returned.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with valid web credentials could exploit this to access sensitive files on the system, potentially exposing confidential data, system configurations, or other restricted information.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data exposure, violating confidentiality requirements in GDPR and HIPAA. Organizations using this device may face compliance violations, fines, or legal consequences if sensitive data is accessed.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately restrict access to BKDownloadLink.cgi by updating firewall rules or disabling the service if unused. Apply the latest firmware update from GeoVision to patch the vulnerability. Ensure web service runs with minimal privileges and disable root access for the web service account.
