CVE-2026-51599

An insufficient input validation vulnerability in the RTSP service of MERCURY MIPC252W v1.0.5 Build 230306 Rel.79931n allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to render an individual TCP connection temporarily unusable via sending an RTSP request with a Content-Length header but no corresponding message body. The affected RTSP parser enters a body-waiting state instead of rejecting the malformed request, causing all subsequent data on the connection to be silently consumed as body content until a server-side timeout closes the connection.

9.8 3.1 CRITICAL
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
