CareCam CM2507 Use of Password Hash With Insufficient Computational Effort

Published Sep 18, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 9.3 Critical EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
CareCam CM2507 IP cameras store the device's root-account password using a fixed legacy password hash that provides insufficient resistance to offline cracking. An attacker who obtains the firmware image or password database could recover the associated credential, which may also be reusable across other devices running the same firmware.
