CVE-2025-2343

7.5 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This critical vulnerability in IROAD Dash Cam X5 and X6 devices involves hard-coded credentials in the device pairing component, allowing attackers with local network access to potentially bypass authentication. The exploitation requires network proximity and technical sophistication, but successful attacks could compromise device security. Only users of these specific dash cam models with firmware up to March 8, 2025 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • IROAD Dash Cam X5
  • IROAD Dash Cam X6
Versions: All versions up to 20250308
Operating Systems: Embedded firmware
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All devices with firmware dated March 8, 2025 or earlier are vulnerable by default. Requires local network access for exploitation.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Attackers gain unauthorized access to dash cam systems, potentially viewing or manipulating video feeds, extracting sensitive location data, or using the device as an entry point to connected networks.

🟠

Likely Case

Local attackers with technical knowledge bypass device pairing to access dash cam features without authorization, though limited by network access requirements.

🟢

If Mitigated

With proper network segmentation and access controls, impact is minimal as attackers cannot reach vulnerable devices from untrusted networks.

🌐 Internet-Facing: LOW - The vulnerability requires local network access; internet-facing exposure is minimal unless devices are directly exposed online.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers or compromised devices on the same network could exploit this, but requires specific technical knowledge.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: MEDIUM

Exploitation requires local network access and technical knowledge of device pairing mechanisms. No public exploit code is available.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Firmware versions after 20250308

Vendor Advisory: No vendor advisory available - vendor did not respond to disclosure

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Check current firmware version via device settings. 2. Visit IROAD support website for latest firmware. 3. Download and install firmware update following manufacturer instructions. 4. Verify update completed successfully.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Segmentation

all

Isolate dash cam devices on separate VLAN or network segment to limit attack surface

Access Control Lists

all

Implement network ACLs to restrict which devices can communicate with dash cams

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Physically disconnect dash cams from networks when not actively needed for operation
  • Implement strict network monitoring for unauthorized access attempts to dash cam IP addresses

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check device firmware version in settings menu; if date is 20250308 or earlier, device is vulnerable

Check Version:

Check via device settings menu; no CLI command available

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify firmware version shows date after 20250308 and attempt device pairing requires proper authentication

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Failed authentication attempts followed by successful device pairing
  • Unusual network connections to dash cam ports

Network Indicators:

  • Unexpected network traffic to/from dash cam devices on pairing ports
  • Multiple authentication attempts from single source

SIEM Query:

source_ip=[dash_cam_ip] AND (event_type="authentication" OR event_type="pairing") AND result="success"
