CISA warns of critical vulnerabilities in Honeywell CCTV products that could allow remote code execution and denial-of-service attacks.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a warning about multiple critical vulnerabilities affecting Honeywell CCTV products. These vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely or cause denial-of-service conditions, potentially disrupting surveillance systems used in critical infrastructure and commercial facilities.
Affected Products
The vulnerabilities impact various Honeywell CCTV models running specific firmware versions. Organizations using Honeywell surveillance equipment should immediately check their systems against the affected product list published by CISA.
Vulnerability Details
Multiple CVEs have been assigned to these vulnerabilities, with CVSS scores ranging from 7.5 to 9.8, indicating high to critical severity. The most severe vulnerabilities allow for remote code execution without authentication, while others could crash the CCTV systems, causing service interruptions.
Mitigation Steps
Organizations should:
- Immediately update to the latest firmware versions provided by Honeywell
- Implement network segmentation for CCTV systems
- Restrict remote access to surveillance equipment
- Monitor network traffic for suspicious activity
Timeline
Honeywell has released patches for the affected products. CISA recommends applying these updates as soon as possible to prevent potential exploitation. Organizations unable to update immediately should implement compensating controls to limit exposure.
