Summary
Jooan JA-A12 IP cameras with firmware 009_20171107 and 05.02.31.105 contain a remote code execution flaw caused by hard-coded credentials (CWE-798). An unauthenticated attacker sends singleCMD=SetDiagMode to /goform/SingleHandlebyCommand with an attacker-chosen authserverip and authcode, which makes the jooandiag daemon run their commands through /bin/sh and gives full device control. CVSS 4.0 base score is 9.3 (CRITICAL). The references include an exploit link; CISA has not added the issue to KEV, and its SSVC rates exploitation as poc, automatable as yes and technical impact as total.
