CVE-2026-36438 Intelbras CVE debrief
A medium-severity information disclosure vulnerability affects Intelbras VIP-1230-D-G4 IP cameras running firmware version V2.800.00IB00C.0.T. The vulnerability resides in the password reset functionality accessible via the `/OutsideCmd` endpoint, which allows remote unauthenticated attackers to obtain sensitive information. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) indicates network-accessible exploitation with low attack complexity, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed, resulting in low confidentiality impact. The weakness is categorized as CWE-640: Weak Password Recovery Mechanism for Forgotten Password. This CVE was published on 2026-05-18 and last modified on 2026-05-19; it is not currently listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. Vendor attribution is based on reference domain analysis with low confidence and requires review.
