Article Content
- •Attackers exploit Dahua cameras via Easy4IP, compromising remote access.
- •Predictable serial numbers allow for brute-force attacks without direct internet access.
- •CERT-UA advises disabling P2P functionality and updating firmware to enhance security.
The Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine (CERT-UA) has issued a warning about unauthorized remote access to Dahua IP cameras and video recorders. Attackers exploited the Easy4IP P2P platform, allowing them to access devices by guessing predictable serial numbers. This vulnerability enables attackers to bypass firewalls and view live video feeds, change settings, and create unauthorized accounts. Specific vulnerabilities exploited include CVE-2021-33044 and CVE-2021-33045, which allow authentication bypass. The alert does not specify the number of affected devices or the identity of the attackers, but it highlights the risks associated with devices that have P2P functionality enabled. CERT-UA recommends disabling P2P access and keeping firmware updated to mitigate risks.
