CVE-2017-8405: An issue was discovered on D-Link DCS-1130 and DCS-1100 devices.

An issue was discovered on D-Link DCS-1130 and DCS-1100 devices. The binary rtspd in /sbin folder of the device handles all the rtsp connections received by the device. It seems that the binary loads at address 0x00012CF4 a flag called "Authenticate" that indicates whether a user should be authenticated or not before allowing access to the video feed. By default, the value for this flag is zero and can be set/unset using the HTTP interface and network settings tab as shown below. The device requires that a user logging to the HTTP management interface of the device to provide a valid username and password. However, the device does not enforce the same restriction by default on RTSP URL due to the checkbox unchecked by default, thereby allowing any attacker in possession of external IP address of the camera to view the live video feed. The severity of this attack is enlarged by the fact that there more than 100,000 D-Link devices out there.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes D-Link DCS-1130 and DCS-1100 cameras exposing live video over RTSP without authentication by default. If reachable from the internet, anyone who knows the camera’s external address may view the feed. The main business risk is privacy, surveillance, and regulatory exposure. Exposure is most likely where affected D-Link DCS-1130 or DCS-1100 cameras have RTSP reachable from external networks. Internal-only cameras still present risk to anyone with network access. The bundle claims broad D-Link device prevalence but does not prove exposed counts for these exact models. Treat internet-facing affected cameras as urgent because the impact is direct unauthorized viewing, not just a technical defect. Prioritize locations with sensitive spaces, customer data exposure, regulated environments, or externally reachable camera networks. Mitigation focus: Enable RTSP authentication in camera network settings where available.; Remove affected cameras from direct internet exposure.; Restrict RTSP access to trusted networks or VPN users only..
