“The Peekaboo flaw is extremely concerning because it exploits the very technology we rely on to keep us safe” Just last year, there were reports of the NUUO NVR devices being specifically targeted by the Reaper IoT Botnet. And this is not the first time that NUUO devices have been affected by a vulnerability. This could assist criminals to enter someone’s premises- undetected by the CCTV! Cameras with this bug could be manipulated and taken offline, worldwide. To give you a small gist of the situation, hackers could replace live feed of video surveillance with a static image of the area. The vulnerability would allow cybercriminals to view, disable or otherwise manipulate video footage using administrator privileges. The vulnerable device is NVRMini2, which is a network-attached storage device and network video recorder. NUUO licenses its software to at least 100 other brands including Sony, CISCO, Sony, Cisco Systems, D-Link, Panasonic and many more. Earlier this week, Tenable Inc announced that its research team had discovered a zero-day vulnerability dubbed as ‘Peekaboo’ in NUUO software.
