It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-68953 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Digital Watchdog VA1G4 Recorder. 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-2026-68953/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68953/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-68953","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68953/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-68953","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w4gc-5pxg-x2jh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Digital Watchdog DVR/NVR","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication to disclose sensitive device information, including plaintext administrator credentials, on Digital Watchdog DVR and NVR devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"The affected products are vulnerable to an authentication bypass that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to disclose sensitive device information, including administrator credentials in plaintext, by sending crafted HTTP(S) requests.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Missing Authentication for Critical Function in Digital Watchdog VMAX DVR and NVR Product Lineups","id":"CVE-2026-68953","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Toptech TMS7 and TopHAT SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2026-68954"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in GROWI","id":"CVE-2026-68951"},"products":["VA1G4 Recorder","VG4 Recorder","VMAX A1 G4 DVR","VMAX A1 PLUS","VMAX IP G4 NVR"],"published":"2026-09-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-16","vendors":["Digital Watchdog"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication to disclose sensitive device information, including plaintext administrator credentials, on Digital Watchdog DVR and NVR devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68953/"}
