GHSA-2MWG-FG86-HRM4

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-09-19 00:30 – Updated: 2025-09-19 00:30

Details

Cognex In-Sight Explorer and In-Sight Camera Firmware expose a telnet-based service on port 23 to allow management operations such as firmware upgrades and device reboots, which require authentication. A user with protected privileges can successfully invoke the SetSerialPort functionality to modify relevant device properties (such as serial interface settings), contradicting the security model proposed in the user manual.
