CVE-2025-50944

8.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability in AVTECH EagleEyes 2.0.0 allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks by bypassing TLS certificate validation. The custom trust manager only checks certificate expiration dates, enabling attackers to intercept and manipulate encrypted communications. Organizations using AVTECH EagleEyes 2.0.0 for video surveillance are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • AVTECH EagleEyes
Versions: 2.0.0
Operating Systems: Any OS running EagleEyes
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All installations of EagleEyes 2.0.0 using the push.lite.avtech.com.MySSLSocketFactoryNew component are vulnerable.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Attackers can intercept all encrypted communications between EagleEyes clients and servers, potentially gaining access to live video feeds, recorded footage, and administrative credentials.

🟠

Likely Case

Man-in-the-middle attacks allowing interception of video streams and authentication data, potentially leading to unauthorized surveillance access.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper network segmentation and monitoring, though TLS validation bypass remains a concern.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Exploitation requires network access to intercept TLS connections. Public proof-of-concept demonstrates the certificate validation bypass.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: Not available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Monitor AVTECH for security updates and consider upgrading to a newer version when available.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Segmentation

all

Isolate EagleEyes systems from untrusted networks to reduce attack surface

Certificate Pinning

all

Implement certificate pinning if possible to bypass the vulnerable trust manager

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Segment EagleEyes network traffic to trusted internal networks only
  • Monitor for unusual network activity and certificate validation failures

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if running EagleEyes 2.0.0 and examine the MySSLSocketFactoryNew.checkServerTrusted implementation for proper certificate chain validation

Check Version:

Check EagleEyes application version in admin interface or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that certificate chain validation is properly implemented in the trust manager

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Certificate validation errors
  • Unexpected certificate authorities
  • TLS handshake failures

Network Indicators:

  • Man-in-the-middle attack patterns
  • Unexpected certificate chains in TLS connections

SIEM Query:

Search for TLS certificate validation failures or unexpected certificate authorities in network traffic logs
