1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2. RISK EVALUATION

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain access to live video feed and camera control.

3. TECHNICAL DETAILS

3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS

The following CloudEdge products are known to be affected:

  • CloudEdge App: Version 4.4.2

3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW

3.2.1 Improper Neutralization of Wildcards or Matching Symbols CWE-155

The CloudEdge Cloud does not sanitize the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) topic input, which could allow an the attacker to leverage the MQTT wildcard to receive all the messages that should be delivered to other users by subscribing to the a MQTT topic. In these messages, the attacker can obtain the credentials and key information to connect to the cameras from peer to peer.

CVE-2025-11757 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (Antivirus Software (AV):N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).

A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2025-11757. A base score of 8.7 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N).

3.3 BACKGROUND

  • CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE SECTORS: Commercial Facilities
  • COUNTRIES/AREAS DEPLOYED: Worldwide
  • COMPANY HEADQUARTERS LOCATION: China

3.4 RESEARCHER

Ph4ng0t reported this vulnerability to CISA.

4. MITIGATIONS

CloudEdge and its parent company Meari Technologies did not respond to CISA's attempts at coordination. Users of CloudEdge Cameras are encouraged to contact CloudEdge or Meari Technolgies and keep their systems up to date.

CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability, such as:

  • Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the internet.
  • Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks.
  • When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize Virtual Private Network (VPN) is only as secure as the connected devices.

CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.

CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the Industrial Control Systems (ICS) webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving ICS Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.

CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets.

Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.

Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.

CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks:

No known public exploitation specifically targeting this vulnerability has been reported to CISA at this time.
