Official description
A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in IROAD Dash Cam X5 and Dash Cam X6 up to 20250308. This affects an unknown part. The manipulation leads to improper authorization. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

The underlying weakness: Incorrect Privilege Assignment
A product incorrectly assigns a privilege to a particular actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
- Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment. For example, database applications rarely need to run as the database administrator, especially in day-to-day operations.
