CVE-2026-57875
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 · uneditedAn unauthenticated NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the HTTP request parsing logic of multiple CGI components in GeoVision GV-LPC2011 and GV-LPC2211 V1.12 and earlier. The vulnerability is caused by improper validation of required HTTP request metadata before it is used by the affected components. A remote attacker may exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request, causing the affected process to crash and resulting in a denial of 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 confidenceAn unauthenticated NULL pointer dereference exists in the HTTP request parsing logic of CGI components in GeoVision GV-LPC2011 and GV-LPC2211 cameras (V1.12 and earlier). Improper validation of HTTP request metadata allows remote attackers to crash the affected process via specially crafted requests, causing denial of service.

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 device's web interface or use SNMP/ONVIF discovery to confirm the exact model number is GV-LPC2011 or GV-LPC2211Affected if The device is a GeoVision GV-LPC2011 or GV-LPC2211 camera
-
Check the firmware versionLog into the device web interface and navigate to the System Information or Firmware version page, or query the device via its CGI API for firmware version informationAffected if The firmware version is V1.12 or any version earlier than V1.12
-
Verify HTTP CGI interface is accessibleAttempt to access the device's CGI endpoints (such as /cgi-bin/ or common CGI paths) via HTTP from a network clientAffected if The HTTP CGI interface responds to requests without authentication
-
Confirm network exposureDetermine if the device HTTP port (typically 80 or 8080) is reachable from untrusted networks or the public internetAffected if The device HTTP service is directly exposed to untrusted networks without firewall protection
You are affected if you have a GeoVision GV-LPC2011 or GV-LPC2211 camera running firmware V1.12 or earlier, with its HTTP CGI interface accessible to network attackers.

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 dataUpgrade to a patched firmware version from GeoVision. If no update is available, restrict network access to affected devices using firewalls or network segmentation to limit exposure to unauthenticated HTTP requests.
