Summary

ACAP applications can gain elevated privileges due to improper input validation during installation, potentially leading to privilege escalation. The vulnerability can only be exploited if the Axis device allows installation of unsigned ACAP applications and an attacker convinces the victim to install a malicious ACAP application.

Risk Assessment

If unsigned ACAP installation is enabled, a malicious application could gain elevated privileges on the Axis device. Exploitation requires a user to install the crafted application.

Recommendation

Disable installation of unsigned ACAP applications and install only applications from trusted sources. Update the Axis device software to a version containing the fix.
