Title
Information Exposure Vulnerability in CP-Plus Wi-Fi Camera
Summary
This vulnerability exists in CP Plus Wi-Fi Camera due to improper protection of sensitive information in runtime memory. An attacker with physical access could exploit this vulnerability by accessing the UART interface and performing memory extraction to obtain sensitive information, including cryptographic private keys, Wi-Fi credentials and configuration data stored in RAM of the targeted device. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow unauthorized access to encrypted communications and connected wireless network of the targeted device.

Mitigation

Phases: Implementation, System Configuration, Operation

Description:

  • When storing data in the cloud (e.g., S3 buckets, Azure blobs, Google Cloud Storage, etc.), use the provider's controls to encrypt the data at rest. [REF-1297] [REF-1299] [REF-1301]
Mitigation

Phases: Implementation, System Configuration, Operation

Description:

  • In some systems/environments such as cloud, the use of "double encryption" (at both the software and hardware layer) might be required, and the developer might be solely responsible for both layers, instead of shared responsibility with the administrator of the broader system/environment.
CAPEC-37: Retrieve Embedded Sensitive Data

An attacker examines a target system to find sensitive data that has been embedded within it. This information can reveal confidential contents, such as account numbers or individual keys/credentials that can be used as an intermediate step in a larger attack.
