Ticket | SV-60, SV-61 |
Description
The high severity issue is related to printing the access credentials in clear in the device logs, after their first provisioning. This operation is mandatory to provision authentication credentials in a device, and the issue is that the log file may be exported, disclosing them.
In addition to this, the device serial number can be changed by pushing the configuration with Command Enterprise mass management or using a reserved API. This is a low severity issue from a security perspective since the device maintains its network identity and continue to operate correctly (even with mass management operations). That said, the upgrade was deemed mandatory to be able to continue in providing support for these devices, since the serial number is needed to process support request.
Impact
The camera authentication credentials provisioned in the device will be present in the logs. The serial number may be changed by pushing the configuration with mass management or using a reserved API.
Mitigations
Change the authentication credential after their initial provisioning, avoid performing configuration changes with Command Enterprise mass management or using a reserved API.
