CVE-2024-6979
Last modified
CVE-2024-6979 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Amin Aliakbari, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found a broken access control which would lead to less-privileged operator- and/or viewer accounts having more privileges than designed. The risk of exploitation is very low as it requires complex steps to execute, including knowing of account passwords and social engineering attacks in tricking the administrator to perform specific configurations on operator- and/or viewer-privileged accounts. EPSS estimates a 0.29% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
