| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires low-privilege authenticated access to the GeoVision LPC2011/LPC2211 Web Interface (PR:L per CVSS vector). The attacker must be able to send HTTP requests to the ssi.cgi endpoint, which is accessible over the network (AV:N). No special configuration or non-default setup is implied by the description - the vulnerability exists in firmware 1.10 as shipped. The attack does not require user interaction (UI:N), meaning the attacker can unilaterally trigger credential leakage by sending a crafted request. Exploitation is limited to credential disclosure only (high confidentiality, no integrity or availability impact), so the attacker cannot directly modify device settings or disable functionality through this vulnerability alone but can escalate privileges to perform such actions with leaked credentials. |
| Impact | CVSS 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) indicates moderate-to-high severity with network-accessible attack vector and low complexity, but requires low-privilege authenticated access. The confidentiality impact is high (credential leak), with no integrity or availability impact. The EPSS exploitation probability is not provided, limiting quantitative risk comparison. No KEV status or POC availability is noted in the source data. The credential disclosure mechanism is realistic for real-world impact - leaked credentials enable lateral movement, administrative account compromise, or service takeover - despite the 'authenticated access required' gate. The lack of public exploit data and KEV confirmation suggests limited but not negligible real-world exploitation. Organizations with exposed LPC2011/2211 devices on untrusted networks face elevated risk; internal-only deployment mitigates attack surface. The requirement for low-privilege access (e.g., a guest or analyst account) is a meaningful but not insurmountable barrier in multi-user surveillance systems. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An internal employee with guest-level credentials to a GeoVision LPC2211 camera management interface crafts a malicious HTTP request to the ssi.cgi endpoint that exploits improper access controls to retrieve stored administrative credentials. Using the leaked credentials, the attacker logs into the device with administrator privileges, modifies camera configurations, or exports footage. Alternatively, a threat actor gains low-privilege access via credential stuffing or social engineering, then exploits the vulnerability to escalate access without requiring additional user interaction. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – May 04, 2026
Privilege escalation in GeoVision LPC2011/LPC2211 Web Interface allows authenticated attackers to leak stored credentials via specially crafted HTTP requests to the ssi.cgi endpoint. The vulnerability affects firmware version 1.10 and requires low-privilege user access but no additional user interaction, enabling unauthenticated credential disclosure on affected devices.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Upgrade to GeoVision LPC2011/LPC2211 firmware version greater than 1.10 per GeoVision advisory at https://www.geovision.com.tw/cyber_security.php. If immediate patching is not feasible, restrict network access to the Web Interface by implementing IP-based access controls (firewall rules, VPN-only access) to limit exposure to authenticated attackers. Disable or restrict the ssi.cgi endpoint if it is not essential to operational requirements - check GeoVision documentation for feature dependencies. Change default credentials and revoke any low-privilege accounts not actively used, reducing the pool of attackers with the PR:L access required to trigger the vulnerability. Monitor web server logs for unusual HTTP requests to ssi.cgi patterns (e.g., repeated parameter variations) that may indicate exploitation attempts.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The GeoVision LPC2011 and LPC2211 are networked IP camera line products that expose a web-based management interface. The ssi.cgi script handles server-side includes or session management functionality within this interface. The vulnerability stems from improper credential storage and insufficient access controls (CWE-522: Credentials Storage on Code Repository, indicating hardcoded or inadequately protected secrets in the application logic). An authenticated user can craft HTTP requests to ssi.cgi that bypass intended authorization checks and retrieve plaintext or weakly protected credentials stored by the application, potentially including administrative account details, API keys, or stored authentication tokens.
