Official description
This vulnerability exists in CP PLUS EZ-P21 IP Camera due to an insecure debug feature enabled in the firmware. An attacker with physical access could exploit this vulnerability by placing arbitrary code on removable media and triggering their execution through the debug mechanism. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the targeted device.
