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 confidence

An unquoted search path vulnerability exists in the incontrolWebcam Service component of Intelbras InControl version 2.21.56. This allows a local attacker to place a malicious executable in an intermediate directory within the service's path, potentially achieving arbitrary code execution with elevated privileges when the service starts.

MitigationUpgrade Intelbras InControl to version 2.21.58 or later to address this vulnerability.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Intelbras InControl installation and version
    Check the installed version of Intelbras InControl by reviewing the program's version information in Control Panel > Programs and Features, or by locating the InControl executable and viewing its file properties.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 2.21.56.
  2. Locate the incontrolWebcam service
    Open Services console (services.msc) or run 'sc query incontrolWebcam' from an elevated command prompt to find the service.
    Affected if The incontrolWebcam service exists on the system.
  3. Examine the service binary path for unquoted spaces
    Run 'sc qc incontrolWebcam' from an elevated command prompt and inspect the BINARY_PATH_NAME field. Look for paths containing spaces that are not enclosed in quotation marks.
    Affected if The service binary path contains spaces but is not wrapped in quotation marks.
  4. Check for suspicious executables in intermediate path directories
    If the service path has unquoted spaces, examine each directory in the path (the folders between the drive letter and the executable name) for any unexpected or malicious .exe files placed there.
    Affected if Unexpected executable files exist in any intermediate directory along the service's unquoted path.

A system is affected if Intelbras InControl version 2.21.56 is installed and the incontrolWebcam service has a binary path with unquoted spaces that could be exploited for privilege escalation.
