An attacker who obtains the firmware image or password database could recover the associated credential, which may also be reusable across other devices running the same firmware.

CRITICAL 9.3EPSS 0.21%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.21%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

CareCam CM2507 IP cameras store the device's root-account password using a fixed legacy password hash that provides insufficient resistance to offline cracking. An attacker who obtains the firmware image or password database could recover the associated credential, which may also be reusable across other devices running the same firmware.
