1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3223)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The weakness exists due to improper validation of input data length for the 'password' field of the web interface. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted POST request to the IP camera's Sonia web interface, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and possibly execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.
