I also seem to recall they boasted with military contracts at some point but I have a hard time finding them now With no answer from them after the last message from me, I realize I can still log in to IPVM and figure that perhaps this is not the worst place to put this information up, so that it reaches the actual users and people involved and interested in camera surveillance, without first exposing it to random internet folks who will exploit the bugs before admins have time to patch, even though it's way too late already. Lynn Harold - 71 All they need to know is that such a flaw exists. What Should We Include? Consider corporations or the public sector for example:

Google's translate doesn't handle Finnish very well but you can try P. Surely it helps if they're running legacy stuff all over, but it's beside the point.
"Mirasys Happy With Bad Security Unless Hit With Bad Press"
Think Hikvision is bad? For deployments, we recommends that surveillance cameras are installed, when possible, in a private camera network That's likely everyone's recommendation, but sadly doesn't solve this problem as I have told you time and time again yet you don't seem to grasp the concept.
Even if the client computer cannot network-wise reach the cameras themselves, gaining administrator access to the Master server allows tampering with every relevant part of the system regardless of network segmentation.
Before jumping to the conclusion that linking such documents here is irresponsible on my part, let me tell you about the timeline here: I never knew any of them. No surprises there, it's broken note, this is Windows Switched job to an unrelated sector of IT - much happier now 06 Mar They just get to use the software while they're there to keep an eye on things.
This - at worst - among all other information includes all credentials, including system admin accounts and all camera IPs and passwords and just about any data that was ever typed into the system. There are many scenarios where this kind of thing is Bad Since I haven't witnessed them disclosing any of this publicly, you may want to know that a proper fix is supposedly implemented in these versions of the three main branches, or that's what Mirasys told me at least: Whether or not this has any relevance to the VMS or other software there doesn't really matter that much, but it feels quite like a typical "low risk, high reward" scenario where I imagined someone could exploit this hole to make their job easier, or to hide their tracks.
Jason Crist - 89 Because those poor sods didn't upgrade instantly within a couple of days of release of the new version with a new price to pay, it's okay to not tell them?
Mirasjs, please give your estimate on how many systems with more than a hundred cameras are actually currently up-to-date? They can probably run DVMS 4.
As you vehemently downplay and try to hide your failures, you're just giving the bad guys more time to act. With no answer from them after the last message from me, I realize I can still log in to IPVM and figure that perhaps this is not the worst place to put this information up, so that it reaches the actual users and people involved and interested in camera surveillance, without first exposing it to random internet folks who will exploit the bugs dfms admins have time to patch, even though it's way too late already.
As a friendly reminder to companies dealing with security: I also seem to recall they boasted dvm military contracts at some point but I have a hard time finding them now John Honovich - 2. Those installations are beyond help, of course.
I get an answer back suggesting I tell my friends to email a specific guy at Evms who can give them download links for the versions. I forget how much the stuff exactly costs but the cost of the license for one channel is perhaps about the svms as the price of a new, affordable IP camera.
"Mirasys Happy With Bad Security Unless Hit With Bad Press"
If someone can advocate a broken camera because it's cheap, do svms see why someone would simply not pay for upgrade licenses, especially when the vendor can't provide any alluring new features and is silent about the security fixes that are the main point of the upgrade?
This question requires an answer. I sincerely hope for their sake that their latest versions don't carry a single line of code from the '90s anymore.
Well, I guess they just switched the software and didn't just keep using their old license. Greg Cortina - Sean Patton - In a networked, multi-server or multi-site environment, all Mirasys VMS servers and client applications can be centrally upgraded from the Mirasys management server.
For example, if the client software could be used to update firmware of the cameras, what would stop a malicious person from updating a camera with modified firmware that transforms it into a bot node within the camera network, wreaking havoc with the captured credentials? Link to the longest article I found about it, in Midasys. Random internet folks also work as security guards, janitors etc. I for one suspected something like this for years but just didn't bother to check until I randomly did one miirasys.
