Description
An exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the UPnP implementation used by the Foscam C1 Indoor HD Camera running application firmware 2.52.2.43. A specially crafted UPnP discovery response can cause a buffer overflow resulting in overwriting arbitrary data. An attacker needs to be in the same subnetwork and reply to a discovery message to trigger this vulnerability.
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 0.8% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
