CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedAuthenticated low-privileged users in ZoneMinder versions prior to 1.36.39, 1.38.4, and 1.39.11 can exploit a flaw that allows them to access media from events of monitors they shouldn't have permission to view, bypassing the intended access controls. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized exposure of private surveillance footage, posing a significant privacy risk. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to the patched releases to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description
ZoneMinder is a free, open source closed-circuit television software application. Versions prior to 1.36.39, 1.38.4, and 1.39.11 allow an authenticated low-privileged user with coarse `Events=View` and/or `Snapshots=View` permissions to directly fetch media for events belonging to monitors they are not allowed to access. The normal UI correctly hides the restricted monitor and its events, but direct event media views accept an arbitrary `eid` and stream media from the event path without enforcing the event/monitor-level ACL. This exposes private surveillance footage across monitor boundaries. Versions 1.36.39, 1.38.4, and 1.39.11 fix the issue.
