CVE-2018-25139

Status: AnalyzedHigh (8.7)—

FLIR AX8 Thermal Camera 1.32.16 contains an unauthenticated vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access live video streams without credentials. Attackers can directly connect to the RTSP stream using tools like VLC or FFmpeg to view and record thermal camera footage.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

🎯 ATT&CK techniques

How this vulnerability is exploited and what the attacker gains, in MITRE ATT&CK terms.

AV:N/PR:N/UI:N indica acceso remoto sin autenticación (T1190). El acceso sin credenciales a flujo de vídeo constituye acceso a recursos sin autenticación válida (T1078) y extracción de datos sensibles (T1005).

Inferred by our analysis agent from the official description, CVSS vector and CWE, and checked by a supervisor. May contain errors.
