Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow in the RTSP request parsing code of Hikvision DVR appliances. The Hikvision DVR devices record video feeds of surveillance cameras and offer remote administration and playback of recorded footage. The vulnerability is present in several models / firmware versions but due to the available test device this module only supports the DS-7204 model.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
