CVE-2026-12851

Multiple OS command injection vulnerabilities exist in the libNetSetObj.so functionality of GeoVision GV-I/O Box 4E 2.09. A specially crafted network packet can lead to command execution. An attacker can send a network request to trigger this vulnerability. `libNetSetObj.so` is an internal library used by various binaries on the device to configure the network stack (start and stop various services, configure IP, Netmask, gateway, dns, etc.) #### CNetSetObj::m_F_n_Set_DNS_Addr command injection The following function can take up to two addresses, performs no sanitization and then calls `system`. This is a classic command injection vulnerability. The function is reachable from both the network-exposed `DVRSearch` service and the `Network.cgi` endpoint. int __fastcall CNetSetObj::m_F_n_Set_DNS_Addr(CNetSetObj *this, char *dns1, char *dns2) { int result; // r0 char v5[80]; // [sp+0h] [bp-50h] BYREF if ( !dns1 ) result = 0; if ( dns1 ) { sprintf(v5, "/bin/echo nameserver %s > /etc/resolv.conf", dns1); // attacker controlled dns1 field system(v5); if ( dns2 ) { sprintf(v5, "/bin/echo nameserver %s >> /etc/resolv.conf", dns2); system(v5); } return 1; } return result;
