CVE-2022-24610
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedSettings/network settings/wireless settings on the Alecto DVC-215IP camera version 63.1.1.173 and below shows the Wi-Fi passphrase hidden, but by editing/removing the style of the password field the password becomes visible which grants access to an internal network connected to the camera.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceThe Alecto DVC-215IP camera firmware 63.1.1.173 and below exposes the Wi-Fi passphrase in the wireless settings page by simply hiding it with CSS styling. An attacker can view the plaintext Wi-Fi password by editing or removing the style attribute from the password field in the web interface, allowing access to the internal network.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm camera modelIdentify the device on your network as the Alecto DVC-215IP camera modelAffected if The device is not an Alecto DVC-215IP
-
Check firmware versionAccess the camera web interface and locate the firmware version in the system or about page, then compare to the affected range of 63.1.1.137 through 63.1.1.173Affected if The firmware version is greater than or equal to 63.1.1.137 and less than 63.1.1.173
-
Inspect Wi-Fi settings pageLog into the camera web interface, navigate to the wireless or Wi-Fi settings page, and examine the password field HTML to see if it uses CSS styling to hide the passwordAffected if The Wi-Fi password field uses a style attribute to hide the password and can be revealed by removing or editing that attribute
You are affected if you have an Alecto DVC-215IP camera running firmware between 63.1.1.137 and 63.1.1.173 where the wireless settings page exposes the Wi-Fi passphrase through CSS-hiding.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped63.1.1.173
Update the camera firmware to a version newer than 63.1.1.173 once available from the vendor. Until then, network segmentation should be implemented to isolate the camera from sensitive internal resources, and the Wi-Fi credentials should be changed.
Firmware version 63.1.1.173 or later
- 1. Access the Alecto DVC-215IP camera web interface
- 2. Navigate to Settings > Network Settings > Wireless Settings
- 3. Locate the firmware upgrade or system update option
- 4. Download the latest firmware from the official Alecto support site (support.alecto.nl)
- 5. Apply the firmware update to upgrade to version 63.1.1.173 or later
- 6. After the update completes, verify the firmware version in the camera's system information
- 7. Confirm that the Wi-Fi passphrase field now properly masks credentials without being bypassable via HTML/CSS manipulation
