Description

An issue was discovered on AXIS M1033-W (IP camera) Firmware version 5.40.5.1 devices. They don't employ a suitable mechanism to prevent a DoS attack, which leads to a response time delay. An attacker can use the hping3 tool to perform an IPv4 flood attack, and the services are interrupted from attack start to end.

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 1.3% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
