Stack-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in the EZVIZ Motion Detection component as used in camera models CS-CV248, CS-C6N-A0-1C2WFR, CS-DB1C-A0-1E2W2FR, CS-C6N-B0-1G2WF, CS-C3W-A0-3H4WFRL allows a remote attacker to execute remote code on the device. This issue affects: EZVIZ CS-CV248 versions prior to 5.2.3 build 220725. EZVIZ CS-C6N-A0-1C2WFR versions prior to 5.3.0 build 220428. EZVIZ CS-DB1C-A0-1E2W2FR versions prior to 5.3.0 build 220802. EZVIZ CS-C6N-B0-1G2WF versions prior to 5.3.0 build 220712. EZVIZ CS-C3W-A0-3H4WFRL versions prior to 5.3.5 build 220723.
Weakness
A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).

Potential Mitigations
- Use automatic buffer overflow detection mechanisms that are offered by certain compilers or compiler extensions. Examples include: the Microsoft Visual Studio /GS flag, Fedora/Red Hat FORTIFY_SOURCE GCC flag, StackGuard, and ProPolice, which provide various mechanisms including canary-based detection and range/index checking.
- D3-SFCV (Stack Frame Canary Validation) from D3FEND [REF-1334] discusses canary-based detection in detail.
- Run or compile the software using features or extensions that randomly arrange the positions of a program’s executable and libraries in memory. Because this makes the addresses unpredictable, it can prevent an attacker from reliably jumping to exploitable code.
- Examples include Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) [REF-58] [REF-60] and Position-Independent Executables (PIE) [REF-64]. Imported modules may be similarly realigned if their default memory addresses conflict with other modules, in a process known as “rebasing” (for Windows) and “prelinking” (for Linux) [REF-1332] using randomly generated addresses. ASLR for libraries cannot be used in conjunction with prelink since it would require relocating the libraries at run-time, defeating the whole purpose of prelinking.
- For more information on these techniques see D3-SAOR (Segment Address Offset Randomization) from D3FEND [REF-1335].
