CVE-2025-50944
📋 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
- AVTECH EagleEyes
📦 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.
🎯 Exploit Status
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
allIsolate EagleEyes systems from untrusted networks to reduce attack surface
Certificate Pinning
allImplement 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
