Brickcom cameras expose live feeds via auth flaws
Brickcom security cameras (v3.2.3.5.6) contain authentication bypass and default credential vulnerabilities allowing remote attackers to access live video feeds and gain administrative control.
CISA has disclosed two critical vulnerabilities affecting multiple Brickcom camera models (Cube, Dome, Bullet, and Box) running firmware version 3.2.3.5.6. CVE-2026-50245 allows unauthenticated access to live snapshot images through the /ONVIF endpoint, while CVE-2026-50005 involves hardcoded default credentials that enable silent access to camera feeds. Both vulnerabilities require no authentication and can be exploited remotely, posing significant privacy and security risks to affected facilities.
The vulnerable devices are deployed worldwide across critical infrastructure sectors including commercial facilities, critical manufacturing, financial services, and healthcare. Brickcom, headquartered in Taiwan, did not respond to CISA's coordination attempts. CISA discovered proof-of-concept exploits authored by researcher parsa rezaie khiabanloo.
No vendor patches are currently available. CISA recommends isolating affected cameras from internet access, placing them behind firewalls, and using VPNs for remote access. Organizations should contact Brickcom directly for support and consider replacing affected devices if patches are not forthcoming.

Detection guidance
Unauthenticated Access to ONVIF Device/Snapshot Endpoint on IoT Camera
Detects unauthenticated HTTP requests to /onvif device or snapshot endpoints, consistent with exploitation of CVE-2026-50245 to pull live camera feeds without credentials. Auto-generated starting point — validate and tune in your environment before deploying. IOC matches can false-positive on shared infrastructure and decay as adversary infrastructure rotates.

Successful Authentication to IoT Camera Web Interface Using Default Vendor Account
Detects successful HTTP authentication to camera/IoT device management interfaces using well-known default vendor account names, indicating exploitation of hardcoded default credential vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-50005. Auto-generated starting point — validate and tune in your environment before deploying. IOC matches can false-positive on shared infrastructure and decay as adversary infrastructure rotates.

description: Detects successful authentication events on camera or NVR web management
interfaces where the account used matches a well-known vendor default account name
(e.g. admin), especially from external or unexpected source addresses, consistent
with abuse of hardcoded default credentials as seen in CVE-2026-50005.
