Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
LIVE555 before 2026.04.22 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in RTSP session command handling that allows attackers to replay valid Session tokens from unauthenticated connections. Attackers who obtain a valid Session token can issue PLAY and TEARDOWN commands from a second TCP connection without authentication, causing server crashes through virtual function call errors or disrupting active streams by terminating victim sessions.
AnalysisAI
Authorization bypass in LIVE555 RTSP server (versions before 2026.04.22) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to hijack active streaming sessions by replaying valid Session tokens over a separate TCP connection. By issuing PLAY or TEARDOWN commands with a captured token, attackers can crash the server via virtual function call errors or terminate legitimate viewers' streams. Publicly available exploit code exists, and a vendor patch has been released; no public exploit identified as actively exploited in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
