Summary: Pelco offers the broadest selection of IP cameras designed
for security surveillance in a wide variety of commercial and industrial
settings. From our industry-leading fixed and high-speed IP cameras to
panoramic, thermal imaging, explosionproof and more, we offer a camera
for any environment, any lighting condition and any application.
When nothing but the best will do. SarixaC/ Enhanced Range cameras
provide the most robust feature-set for your mission-critical applications.
With SureVisionaC/ 3.0, Sarix Enhanced delivers the best possible image
in difficult lighting conditions such as a combination of bright areas,
shaded areas, and intense light. Designed with superior reliability,
fault tolerance, and processing speed, these rugged fixed IP cameras
ensure you always get the video that you need.

Desc: The affected cameras suffer from authenticated remote code
execution vulnerability. The POST parameter 'enable_leds' located
in the update() function called via the GeneralSetupController.php
script is not properly sanitised before being used in writeLedConfig()
function to enable led state to on or off. A remote attacker can
exploit this issue and execute arbitrary system commands granting
her system access with root privileges using a specially crafted
request and escape sequence to system shell.
