AI-suggested
If you cannot patch yet, it is recommended to disable the installation of unsigned ACAP applications to prevent exploitation. Users should avoid installing ACAP applications from untrusted sources.
Description
An ACAP configuration file lacked sufficient input validation, which could allow command injection and potentially lead to privilege escalation. This vulnerability can only be exploited if the Axis device is configured to allow the installation of unsigned ACAP applications, and if an attacker convinces the victim to install a malicious ACAP application.
