CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Description
Hard-coded FTP credentials (r:r) are included in the Foscam C1 running firmware 1.9.1.12. Knowledge of these credentials would allow remote access to any cameras found on the internet that do not have port 50021 blocked by an intermediate device.
Exploitation
Not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue as of 2026.09.04. That is an absence of confirmed public exploitation, not evidence that exploitation has not occurred. EPSS models a 2.6% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
