An estimated 175,000 Internet of Things (IoT) connected security cameras manufactured by Shenzhen Neo Electronics are vulnerable to cyber attacks. The cameras are manufactured by the company that offers surveillance and security solutions, including IP cameras, sensors and alarms. The experts discovered several buffer overflow vulnerabilities in two models of cameras. They believe other models commercialized by the Chinese company are vulnerable because they use the same firmware. The security cameras use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically open ports in the routers firewall to allow access from the Internet.”]
