Privilege Escalation in Axis Devices Due to Improper Input Validation

CVE-2025-6298

What is CVE-2025-6298?

The vulnerability allows malicious actors to escalate privileges on Axis devices due to improper input validation. This can occur when an Axis device permits the installation of unsigned ACAP applications. If an attacker convinces a victim to install a malicious ACAP application, they may gain elevated privileges, compromising the device's integrity. Ensuring that only trusted and signed applications are installed can mitigate the risk associated with this vulnerability.
