Some products of Dahua have Denial of Service vulnerabilities. After the successful login of the legal account, the attacker sends a specific log query command, which may cause the device to go down.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2020-9500 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires high privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
