CVE-2026-2564:

Security Advisory: High-Severity Vulnerability in Intelbras VIP 3260 Z IA

Overview

A high-severity security vulnerability has been identified in a specific firmware version of the Intelbras VIP 3260 Z IA IP camera. The flaw resides in the device’s web interface, specifically within a function designed for password recovery. This weakness could allow a remote attacker to potentially bypass or reset the device’s administrative password.

Vulnerability Details

The vulnerability is located in the /OutsideCmd file of the camera’s software. In simple terms, this component handles certain external commands. Due to an insecure implementation, the password recovery mechanism is not sufficiently robust. While exploiting this flaw is assessed as complex and difficult, it is possible for a determined attacker to launch an attack over the internet without prior access to the device.

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) score of 8.1 (HIGH) reflects the significant potential impact if exploitation is successful.

Potential Impact

If successfully exploited, this vulnerability could allow an unauthorized attacker to:

• Gain Administrative Control: Reset or recover the camera’s admin password, leading to a complete compromise of the device.
• Compromise Video Feeds: Access live and recorded video streams, violating privacy and security.
• Use the Device as a Network Foothold: Potentially use the compromised camera to launch further attacks on other devices within your local network.
• Alarm System Disruption: If integrated into a security system, camera functionality could be disabled or manipulated.

Affected Products

• Device: Intelbras VIP 3260 Z IA IP Camera
• Affected Firmware Version: 2.840.00IB005.0.T
• Status of Other Versions: Other firmware versions are currently unconfirmed. You should verify your specific firmware version.

Remediation and Mitigation

Primary Action: Immediate Firmware Update The vendor, Intelbras, has released a firmware update to address this vulnerability. It is critically important to upgrade the affected component.

1. Check Firmware: Log into your camera’s web interface and navigate to the system information or maintenance section to confirm the firmware version.
2. Download Update: Visit the official Intelbras support website to download the latest firmware for your exact camera model.
3. Apply Update: Carefully follow the vendor’s instructions to install the new firmware. This typically involves uploading the file through the camera’s admin interface.

Additional Mitigation Steps:

• Network Segmentation: Isolate IP cameras on a separate network VLAN, away from critical business or personal systems.
• Restrict Remote Access: If remote internet access is not essential, disable UPnP and port forwarding rules for the camera on your router.
• Use Strong Credentials: Ensure a unique, complex administrator password is set, even after patching.

Next Steps

IT administrators should inventory their network for the affected camera model and firmware version, apply the update as a priority, and review network security policies for IoT devices. Monitor Intelbras official channels for any further updates.
