Summary

A command injection vulnerability in Dahua EIMS versions prior to 2240008 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via the capture_handle.action interface. The flaw stems from improper input validation in the captureCommand parameter, which is processed without sanitization or authentication. By sending crafted HTTP requests, attackers can inject OS-level commands that are executed on the server, leading to full system compromise.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to fully compromise the Dahua EIMS server, potentially leading to data theft, malware installation, or using the server as a foothold for further attacks within the organization's network.

Recommendation

Immediately update Dahua EIMS to version 2240008 or later. If updating is not possible, isolate the system from the internet and restrict access to the capture_handle.action interface.
