CVE-2021-47796: Denver Smart Wifi Camera SHC-150 - 'Telnet' Remote Code Execution (RCE)

Denver SHC-150 Smart Wifi Camera contains a hardcoded telnet credential vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to access a Linux shell. Attackers can connect to port 23 using the default credential to execute arbitrary commands on the camera's operating system.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Denver SHC-150 smart WiFi cameras reportedly include hardcoded Telnet credentials. An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the camera’s Telnet service could obtain a Linux shell and control the device. This is a critical issue for any exposed camera, especially if reachable from the internet or untrusted networks. Exposure is most likely where SHC-150 cameras are internet-accessible, reachable from guest networks, or placed on flat internal networks. Devices behind strict firewall rules and isolated IoT networks have reduced exposure, but remain at risk from local attackers. Treat as urgent for exposed cameras. A successful attacker could take over the device, spy on network activity, or use it as a foothold. Prioritize discovery, exposure reduction, and replacement planning if no vendor fix is available. Mitigation focus: Identify and prioritize any Denver SHC-150 cameras in the environment.; Remove internet exposure to the camera and block inbound Telnet access.; Place affected cameras on a restricted IoT network segment..

Use of Hard-coded Credentials

Use of Hard-coded Credentials represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
