Hikvision Backdoor Exploit Demo

The Hikvision IP Camera Backdoor is a magic string that Hikvision secretly included that easily allows backdooring the camera, regardless of the strength of the password. In this demo, we show how it is done and demonstrate a tool built on that exploit to easily change the admin password and take control of the camera. The backdoor was included in firmware releases from ~2014 to Q1 2017. For more, see https://ipvm.com/reports/hik-exploit
