CVE-2025-69986
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 · uneditedA buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the ONVIF GetStreamUri function of LSC Indoor Camera V7.6.32. The application fails to validate the length of the Protocol parameter inside the Transport element. By sending a specially crafted SOAP request containing an oversized protocol string, an attacker can overflow the stack buffer, overwriting the return instruction pointer (RIP). This vulnerability allows for Denial of Service (DoS) via device crash or Remote Code Execution (RCE) in the context of the ONVIF service.
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 confidenceA buffer overflow exists in the ONVIF GetStreamUri function of LSC Indoor Camera V7.6.32 due to missing length validation on the Protocol parameter within the Transport element of SOAP requests. An attacker can send a crafted SOAP request with an oversized protocol string to overflow a stack buffer and overwrite the return instruction pointer, leading to DoS or RCE.

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.
-
Identify the device modelAccess the camera's web interface or check the device label/metadata to confirm it is an LSC Indoor Camera model.Affected if The device is an LSC Indoor Camera.
-
Check the firmware versionNavigate to the camera's settings page (usually under System > Device Info or similar) and record the firmware version. Alternatively, use the ONVIF GetDeviceInformation API request to retrieve the firmware version.Affected if The firmware version is V7.6.32 or falls within the V7.6.x range where the vulnerability exists.
-
Confirm ONVIF service is enabledCheck the camera's network settings or security configuration page for ONVIF service status. Alternatively, send a SOAP request to the ONVIF endpoint (typically /onvif/device_service) and verify a valid response is received.Affected if ONVIF is enabled and the device responds to ONVIF SOAP requests.
-
Verify GetStreamUri is accessibleSend an authenticated ONVIF GetStreamUri request to the device's ONVIF endpoint. Inspect whether the function responds without error, indicating the feature is active.Affected if The GetStreamUri function is accessible and responds to requests.
If the device is an LSC Indoor Camera running firmware V7.6.32 with ONVIF enabled and the GetStreamUri function accessible, the environment is affected by this vulnerability.

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.
From vendor dataImplement strict length validation on the Protocol parameter before buffer copy operations in the GetStreamUri function; if firmware update is available from vendor, apply it immediately.
