This module tests for standalone CCTV DVR video surveillance deployments specifically by MicroDigital, HIVISION, CTRing, and numerous other rebranded devices that are utilizing default vendor passwords. Additionally, this module has the ability to brute force user accounts. Such CCTV DVR video surveillance deployments support remote viewing through Central Management Software (CMS) via the CMS Web Client, an IE ActiveX control hosted over HTTP, or through Win32 or mobile CMS client software. By default, remote authentication is handled over port 5920/TCP with video streaming over 5921/TCP. After successful authentication over 5920/TCP this module will then attempt to determine if the IE ActiveX control is listening on the default HTTP port (80/TCP).
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
