Multiple zero-day vulnerabilities were actively being exploited in CCTV security cameras manufactured by Taiwan-based LILIN, researchers found.
The company, an IP video solution provider, was being targeted by hackers hijacking the company's DVR hardware.
Once commandeered, hackers then planted malware on devices to run botnets Chalubo, FBot and Moobot.
As for the LILIN DVR vulnerability specifics, one is tied to the DRV's NTPDate computer program.
Similar injection vulnerabilities exist within the software's FTP settings that eventually allow remote access to the "/dvr/cmd" interface through hard-coded account passwords.
