Misconfigured Baby Cams Allow Unauthorized Viewing

A vulnerability affecting multiple baby monitors could allow someone to drop in and view a camera s video stream, according to researchers. Potentially hundreds of thousands of live devices are impacted, they said. The issue exists in the manufacturers implementation of the Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP), which is a set of procedures used by various cameras to control their streaming media. The specific models that the team tested that proved to be vulnerable include the Hipcam RealServer/V1.0; the webcamXP 5; and the Boa/0.94.94.
