An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2017-8229 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8229/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8229/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8229","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8229/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8229","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4xj7-ghpf-q4fg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Amcrest IP camera","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can download administrative credentials from Amcrest IP cameras by accessing specific configuration files via HTTP.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ipm-721s_firmware","vendor":"amcrest"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-255","name":null}],"description":"Amcrest IPM-721S V2.420.AC00.16.R.20160909 devices allow an unauthenticated attacker to download the administrative credentials. If the firmware version V2.420.AC00.16.R 9/9/2016 is dissected using binwalk tool, one obtains a _user-x.squashfs.img.extracted archive which contains the filesystem set up on the device that many of the binaries in the /usr folder. The binary \"sonia\" is the one that has the vulnerable function that sets up the default credentials on the device. If one opens this binary in IDA-pro one will notice that this follows a ARM little endian format. The function sub_436D6 in IDA pro is identified to be setting up the configuration for the device. If one scrolls to the address 0x000437C2 then one can see that /current_config is being set as an ALIAS for /mnt/mtd/Config folder on the device. If one TELNETs into the device and navigates to /mnt/mtd/Config folder, one can observe that it contains various files such as Account1, Account2, SHAACcount1, etc. This means that if one navigates to http://[IPofcamera]/current_config/Sha1Account1 then one should be able to view the content of the files. The security researchers assumed that this was only possible only after authentication to the device. However, when unauthenticated access tests were performed for the same URL as provided above, it was observed that the device file could be downloaded without any authentication.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2017/CVE-2017-8229.yaml","stars":null,"title":"Amcrest IP Camera Web Management - Data Exposure"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8229","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8230"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8228"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-07-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-13719","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8227","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8228","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can download administrative credentials from Amcrest IP cameras by accessing specific configuration files via HTTP.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8229/"}
