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.

NCC Group has found a flaw during the annual internal penetration test ordered by Axis Communications. The protection for device tampering (commonly known as Secure Boot) contains a flaw which provides an opportunity for a sophisticated attack to bypass this protection. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.

Non-sanitized user input could lead to SQL injections in AXIS License Plate Verifier

User provided input is not sanitized on the AXIS License Plate Verifier specific “search.cgi” allowing for SQL injections.

Non-sanitized user input could lead to arbitrary code execution during Access Control configuration in AXIS License Plate Verifier

User provided input is not sanitized in the “Settings > Access Control” configuration interface allowing for arbitrary code execution.

Non-sanitized user input could lead to arbitrary code execution in AXIS License Plate Verifier

User provided input is not sanitized on the AXIS License Plate Verifier specific “api.cgi” allowing for arbitrary code execution.

Insufficient file permissions leak administrator-privileged credentials in AXIS License Verifier ACAP

Due to insufficient file permissions, unprivileged users could gain access to unencrypted administrator credentials allowing the configuration of the application.

Insufficient file permissions leak user credentials of 3rd party integration interfaces in AXIS License Verifier ACAP

Due to insufficient file permissions, unprivileged users could gain access to unencrypted user credentials that are used in the integration interface towards 3rd party systems.

Privilege escalation in AXIS License Plate Verifier ACAP

A broken access control was found allowing for privileged escalation of the operator account to gain administrator privileges.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Axis A1001 Network Door Controller's OSDP communication

Ariel Harush and Roy Hodir from OTORIO have found a flaw in the AXIS A1001 when communicating over OSDP. A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the pacsiod process which is handling the OSDP communication allowing to write outside of the allocated buffer. By appending invalid data to an OSDP message it was possible to write data beyond the heap allocated buffer. The data written outside the buffer could be used to execute arbitrary code.  lease refer to the Axis security advisory for more information, mitigation and affected products and software versions.

Denial-of-Service vulnerability in Axis Network Door Controller's and Axis Network Intercom's OSDP communication

Knud from Fraktal.fi has found a flaw in some Axis Network Door Controllers and Axis Network Intercoms when communicating over OSDP, highlighting that the OSDP message parser crashes the pacsiod process, causing a temporary unavailability of the door-controlling functionalities meaning that doors cannot be opened or closed. No sensitive or customer data can be extracted as the Axis device is not further compromised. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information, mitigation and affected products and software versions.

The server in Citilog 8.0 allows an attacker (in a man in the middle position between the server and its smart camera Axis M1125) to see FTP credentials in a cleartext HTTP traffic. These can be used for FTP access to the server.

An authentication downgrade in the server in Citilog 8.0 allows an attacker (in a man in the middle position between the server and its smart camera Axis M1125) to achieve HTTP access to the camera.

AXIS IP Utility before 4.18.0 allows for remote code execution and local privilege escalation by the means of DLL hijacking. IPUtility.exe would attempt to load DLLs from its current working directory which could allow for remote code execution if a compromised DLL would be placed in the same folder.

A user with permission to log on to the machine hosting the AXIS Device Manager client could under certain conditions extract a memory dump from the built-in Windows Task Manager application. The memory dump may potentially contain credentials of connected Axis devices.

A user controlled parameter related to SMTP test functionality is not correctly validated making it possible to add the Carriage Return and Line Feed (CRLF) control characters and include arbitrary SMTP headers in the generated test email.

A user controlled parameter related to SMTP test functionality is not correctly validated making it possible to bypass blocked network recipients.

User controlled parameters related to SMTP notifications are not correctly validated. This can lead to a buffer overflow resulting in crashes and data leakage.

An issue was discovered on AXIS M1033-W (IP camera) Firmware version 5.40.5.1 devices. They don't employ a suitable mechanism to prevent a DoS attack, which leads to a response time delay. An attacker can use the hping3 tool to perform an IPv4 flood attack, and the services are interrupted from attack start to end.

An issue was discovered on AXIS M1033-W (IP camera) Firmware version 5.40.5.1 devices. The upload web page doesn't verify the file type, and an attacker can upload a webshell by making a fileUpload.shtml request for a custom .shtml file, which is interpreted by the Apache HTTP Server mod_include module with "<!--#exec cmd=" support. The file needs to include a specific string to meet the internal system architecture. After the webshell upload, an attacker can use the webshell to perform remote code execution such as running a system command (ls, ping, cat /etc/passwd, etc.). NOTE: the vendor reportedly indicates that this is an intended feature or functionality
