CVE-2025-11942 is a vulnerability identified in the 70mai X200 dashcam device, specifically affecting versions up to 20251010. The flaw resides in the device's pairing component, where an unknown function fails to enforce authentication checks properly. This missing authentication allows an attacker to remotely manipulate the pairing process without any credentials, user interaction, or privileges. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network, meaning an attacker can initiate the attack without physical access to the device. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and network attack vector (AV:N), with low impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:L, VI:L, VA:L). The vendor was contacted early but has not responded or issued a patch, and although no exploits are currently observed in the wild, exploit code has been published publicly, increasing the risk of exploitation. The lack of authentication in the pairing process could allow attackers to connect unauthorized devices, intercept or manipulate video streams, or alter device settings, potentially compromising the security and privacy of users relying on the dashcam. Given the device’s typical use in vehicles, this could also have safety implications if attackers interfere with device operation or data integrity.

For European organizations, especially those in logistics, transportation, or fleet management that deploy 70mai X200 dashcams, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized access to vehicle monitoring data and control interfaces. Attackers could exploit the missing authentication to intercept sensitive video footage, manipulate device configurations, or disrupt device functionality, potentially leading to privacy violations, operational disruptions, or safety hazards. The remote exploitability and lack of required privileges increase the threat level, particularly in environments where these devices are connected to corporate networks or cloud services. Additionally, the absence of vendor response and patch availability prolongs exposure, increasing the window for potential attacks. Organizations relying on these devices for compliance, driver monitoring, or incident recording may face regulatory and reputational risks if data integrity or confidentiality is compromised.

1. Immediately isolate 70mai X200 devices on segmented networks separate from critical infrastructure to limit exposure. 2. Disable or restrict remote pairing features if configurable, to prevent unauthorized device connections. 3. Monitor network traffic to and from the dashcams for unusual pairing attempts or unauthorized access patterns. 4. Employ network-level access controls such as firewalls or VLANs to restrict communication to trusted management systems only. 5. Maintain strict physical security controls to prevent local access to devices. 6. Regularly audit device firmware versions and configurations to identify affected units. 7. Engage with the vendor for updates and patches, and consider alternative devices if no remediation is forthcoming. 8. Implement compensating controls such as encrypted VPN tunnels for remote access to reduce interception risks. 9. Educate staff on the risks and signs of device compromise. 10. Prepare incident response plans specific to IoT device compromise scenarios.
