Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Zhejiang Dahua EIMS. This affects some unknown processing of the file capture_handle.action. The manipulation of the argument captureCommand with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-78. The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

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. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-04-06 UTC.

The weakness was presented by Maodaner Security. It is possible to read the advisory at support.dahuatech.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2024-13985 since 08/27/2025.
