Technical details

An improper validation of array index (CWE-129) exists in the WebSocket server component of GeoVision GeoWebPlayer version 1.1.1.0. When the server receives a 'saveVideo' command, it extracts an 'index' value from the JSON message and uses it to access the 'crit_sections' and 'array_of_IPCams' arrays without performing bounds checking. An attacker can provide an out-of-bounds index to trigger an out-of-bounds read of a function pointer during the release of a CriticalSection. By enticing a user to visit a malicious webpage that sends crafted WebSocket messages to localhost, an attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is addressed in version 1.1.3.0.
