Browser-driven reach to a localhost server gives AV:N with UI:R; unreliable OOB pointer control gives AC:H; no auth is PR:N; code execution escaping the WebSocket handler yields S:C and C/I/A:H.

GeoWebPlayer (also called "Web Plugin" in the GV-VMS documentation and "WS Player" for VMS-Cloud) is an addon that can be installed with various GeoVision software (GV-VMS, GV-Cloud, ...). It creates a websocket server that expands the capabilities of the various web-interfaces provided by the GeoVision software and may be necessary for them to function properly.
The Websocket server can accept various commands coming from localhost. Many of the commands will take an index value that is then used to access various arrays to enter critical sections, perform various actions via function calls, etc. However the index value is usually not checked for valid range, and as such it can be used to access multiple arrays out-of-bound.
saveVideo command index-out-of-bound
When sending the saveVideo command, the index field is extracted from the websocket message [1]. Then without checking the range of the index, it is used to trigger a CriticalSection ([2]) and releases it [3]. The release function call ([3]) is executed using a function pointer which will be read out of bounds potentially leading to code execution:
v6 = get_entry(a2, "index");
result = json_is_value_int(v6);
if ( (_BYTE)result )
{
v8 = get_entry(a2, "index");
index = json_value_to_int(&v8->value); // [1]
result = CCriticalSection::EnterCritSection(&this->crit_sections[index]); //[2]
if ( result )
{
if ( this->array_of_IPCams[index] )
{
if ( this->array_of_IPCams[index]->field_20 )
do_PostMessageA((CViewer *)this->array_of_IPCams[index], 0x111u, 0x139Fu, v11);
}
return (*(int (__thiscall **)(CCriticalSection *))(this->crit_sections[index].vtbl + 20))(&this->crit_sections[index]); //[3]
}
}
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds array access in GeoVision's GeoWebPlayer addon (also branded 'Web Plugin' in GV-VMS and 'WS Player' in VMS-Cloud) can lead to remote code execution when the addon's localhost WebSocket server processes a saveVideo command with an attacker-controlled index. Because the addon ships with widely-used GeoVision products (GV-VMS, GV-Cloud) and is reachable from a victim's browser via a malicious web page, a lured user visiting attacker-controlled content can trigger an out-of-bounds function-pointer call. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the GeoWebPlayer / 'Web Plugin' / 'WS Player' addon be installed and its localhost WebSocket server running (it ships with GeoVision software such as GV-VMS and GV-Cloud), and that a victim user be induced to load attacker-controlled web content that connects to that local WebSocket and issues a saveVideo command with an out-of-range 'index' value (per CVSS UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are moderately but not uniformly high-priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An operator running GV-VMS with the GeoWebPlayer addon active is lured to a malicious web page; that page opens a WebSocket to the local GeoWebPlayer server and sends a saveVideo command carrying an out-of-range 'index'. The unchecked index causes an out-of-bounds function-pointer read and indirect call, and with suitable memory grooming (reflected in the CVSS AC:H) the attacker steers execution to attacker-influenced memory to achieve code execution in the addon's process. … |
| Remediation | Consult the GeoVision cyber security advisory (https://www.geovision.com.tw/cyber_security.php) and apply the fixed GeoWebPlayer/Web Plugin build once published; no exact fix version is identified in the available data, so no vendor-released patch version can be independently confirmed at time of analysis, and the TALOS-2026-2373 report (https://talosintelligence.com/vulnerability_reports/TALOS-2026-2373) should be tracked for coordinated-disclosure fix details. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running GeoVision GV-VMS and GV-Cloud products with the GeoWebPlayer addon; restrict outbound internet access from these systems or notify staff to avoid untrusted websites on surveillance networks. …
