CRITICAL 9.1

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Frigate is a network video recorder (NVR) with realtime local object detection for IP cameras. Prior to 0.16.4, a critical Remote Command Execution (RCE) vulnerability has been identified in the Frigate integration with go2rtc. The application does not sanitize user input in the video stream configuration (config.yaml), allowing direct injection of system commands via the exec: directive. The go2rtc service executes these commands without restrictions. This vulnerability is only exploitable by an administrator or users who have exposed their Frigate install to the open internet with no authentication which allows anyone full administrative control. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.16.4.

AnalysisAI

Frigate NVR has a command injection vulnerability (CVSS 9.1) allowing authenticated attackers to execute OS commands on the network video recorder.

Technical ContextAI

Frigate, a network video recorder with local AI object detection, has a CWE-78 command injection vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject and execute OS commands.
