NUUO NVRmini2 Devices Missing Authentication Vulnerability

Published Jan 14, 2022 · updated Jun 16, 2026 · nuuo nvrmini2 firmware

NUUO NVRmini2 through 3.11 allows an unauthenticated attacker to upload an encrypted TAR archive, which can be abused to add arbitrary users because of the lack of handle_import_user.php authentication. When combined with another flaw (CVE-2011-5325), it is possible to overwrite arbitrary files under the web root and achieve code execution as root.
