CVE-2026-57873
HIGH 7.5An unauthenticated NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in IEEE8021x_upload.cgi in GeoVision GV-LPC2011 and GV-LPC2211 V1.12 and earlier. The vulnerability is caused by improper validation of multipart upload headers when processing certificate-related upload fields. A remote attacker may exploit this vulnerability by sending a malformed multipart request, causing the affected CGI process to crash and resulting in a denial of service.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 7.5), but no known exploitation and low modeled probability. Patch on a normal cadence.
