Global Security Infrastructure Exposed
Axis Communications, the global market leader for IP enabled security cameras, has confirmed there are seven major vulnerabilities in 400 of its security camera models.
Axis’ cameras are frequently used as part of critical security infrastructure in places like the Sydney Airport, Moscow Metro and the City of Houston.Exploitation of these vulnerabilities would allow malicious actors to gain complete control of the camera and its video stream.
Remotely targeting the device, someone could do such things as view the video stream, freeze the video, control the direction of the camera, add the device to a botnet, modify the software, and other actions that could destroy security.It’s important to keep track of what devices are within your environment.
