⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete compromise of all connected cameras, enabling unauthorized surveillance, data exfiltration, and potential physical security breaches.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to camera feeds and settings, leading to privacy violations and potential reconnaissance for further attacks.
If Mitigated
Limited or no impact if proper network segmentation and API security controls are implemented.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires obtaining API credentials through insecure storage or transmission
