## What is CVE-2026-123993?

CVE-2026-123993 is a high-severity vulnerability in Hisense VIDAA, published on 6 Nov 2026. 

### Official description

Hisense VIDAA Smart TV firmware V0000.01.00a.P0220 contains an unauthenticated access vulnerability where a QA build of the Google Cobalt browser engine exposes the WebDriver automation server on TCP port 4444 across all network interfaces without any authentication or pairing requirement. A LAN-adjacent attacker can connect to the exposed WebDriver service to execute arbitrary JavaScript, read and exfiltrate sensitive localStorage data including ACR telemetry, MAC addresses, ad-service credentials, and location data, inject persistent content onto the display, and access the window.hisense native bridge to perform filesystem read/write and system-state operations.

Weakness: CWE-489 (Active Debug Code), CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality)
