## :warning: SECURITY ADVISORY — READ BEFORE BUYING

**DO NOT purchase Yoosee/Gwelltimes cameras for security-sensitive applications.**

These cameras have **critical architectural security flaws** that cannot be fixed with firmware updates:

- :red_circle: **All video streams are replayed to Chinese cloud servers** (`cloudlinks.cn`, Huawei Cloud, Tencent Cloud) — even on "local only" mode, P2P connections route through China-based relay servers
- :red_circle: **RTSP password = MD5(device_id)** — anyone who knows your camera's numeric ID can compute the stream password. Zero salt, zero randomness
- :red_circle: **No ONVIF authentication** — full camera control (video, PTZ, device info) without any credentials
- :red_circle: **DES encryption with hardcoded keys** — P2P password encryption uses `53a6c99d783a68b1`, same key for ALL devices worldwide
- :red_circle: **814,000+ devices with default passwords** exposed (SRLabs/DeepSec 2017) — `123`, `888888`, `123456`
- :red_circle: **Firmware signed with known RSA private keys** — malicious firmware can be crafted and deployed
- :red_circle: **Zero certificate pinning** — `usesCleartextTraffic="true"`, trivial MITM

**If you already own one**: isolate it on a separate VLAN with no internet access and use RTSP directly.

## :bookmark: About

Independent security research on **Yoosee (有看头)** IP cameras manufactured by **Shenzhen Gwelltimes Technology** (深圳技威时代科技有限公司). This project documents vulnerabilities found through independent testing on hardware **owned by the author** — no engagement, no contract, no bounty program. Same firmware, cloud infrastructure, and P2P protocol power consumer IoT cameras sold under multiple white-label brands worldwide.

Gwelltimes, founded in 2012 in Shenzhen, is an IoT video solutions company that manufactures cameras sold under **dozens of brand names globally**. Their Yoosee app has over **50 million downloads** on Google Play and claims **130 million users worldwide** across 209 countries ([source: Tencent Cloud PR, Aug 2025](https://www.prnewswire.com/apac/news-releases/tencent-cloud-announces-full-upgrade-of-aiot-2-0-product-solutions-setting-a-new-all-in-one-standard-for-intelligent-device-development-302525994.html)). Over **7 million cameras shipped annually**. The same firmware, cloud infrastructure (`cloudlinks.cn`), and P2P protocol power all devices — a vulnerability in one brand affects them all.

### Primary Target

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **OEM** | Shenzhen Gwelltimes Technology (深圳技威时代科技有限公司) |
| **Model** | SC-B21 Dual-Lens PTZ (It-Blue) |
| **Firmware** | 38.02.103, Hardware Ver 2.1 |
| **SoC** | Anyka AK3918EV330 (ARM926EJ-S) |
| **Video** | H.265 1920x2160 (dual lens stitched) @ 15fps |
| **Audio** | G.711 PCM A-law 16kHz mono |
| **WiFi** | RTL8188FU |
| **App** | Yoosee / YYP2P (com.yoosee) |
| **Cloud** | cloudlinks.cn (P2P V5, FPFQ protocol) |

## :shield: Vulnerabilities

Organized by **CVSS severity**. See [advisories/](advisories/) for full technical details and PoCs.

### Critical

| # | Vulnerability | CVSS | Description |
|---|--------------|------|-------------|
| 1 | **RTSP password = MD5(device_id)** | 9.8 | Any camera's stream password can be computed from its public device ID. Works for ALL Yoosee cameras worldwide. `tools/rtsp/rtsp_password_gen.py` |
| 2 | **ONVIF unauthenticated access** | 9.1 | Port 5000 responds to all ONVIF queries without WS-Security. Full device enumeration, video profiles, stream URIs |
| 3 | **DES key hardcoded for P2P** | 9.0 | Key `53a6c99d783a68b1` in `libp2pav.so` encrypts ALL device passwords. Same key for every camera on the planet |
| 4 | **Firmware RSA keys leaked** | 9.0 | Private keys for firmware signing available in public repos. Enables crafting malicious firmware updates |
| 5 | **CVE-2025-52085 — SQL Injection** | 8.8 | SQLi via `alarmId` parameter in cloud API. Authenticated users can extract entire database |

### High

| # | Vulnerability | CVSS | Description |
|---|--------------|------|-------------|
| 6 | **Cloud video replay to China** | 8.5 | All P2P connections route through servers in China (Huawei/Tencent Cloud). Video accessible to infrastructure operators |
| 7 | **DoS via ONVIF write ops** | 8.2 | CreateUsers, SetHostname, GetUsers crash the IPC process permanently. Requires physical power cycle |
| 8 | **SmartConfig keys hardcoded** | 7.5 | Realtek PIN `57289961` + Elian AES keys enable WiFi credential interception during camera setup |
| 9 | **Zero certificate pinning** | 7.4 | `usesCleartextTraffic="true"`, no cert pinning — trivial MITM of all app-cloud communication |

### Medium

| # | Vulnerability | CVSS | Description |
|---|--------------|------|-------------|
| 10 | **PTZ control without auth** | 6.5 | ContinuousMove via ONVIF works without credentials — remote camera movement |
| 11 | **Partial unauthenticated RTSP** | 6.1 | `/cam/realmonitor` path accessible without any credentials |
| 12 | **Information disclosure** | 5.3 | Firmware, MAC, DHCP, video sources exposed via ONVIF |

### Legacy / Prior Research

| Source | Year | Finding |
|--------|------|---------|
| **SRLabs/DeepSec** | 2017 | 814K+ devices with default passwords, firmware injection via DNS hijack |
| **SEC Consult** | 2020 | P2P protocol flaws enabling unauthorized access to baby monitors |
| **CVE-2025-52085** | 2025 | SQL injection in Yoosee cloud backend |

## :globe_with_meridians: Affected Brands

Gwelltimes operates as an **OEM/ODM manufacturer**. The same firmware and cloud infrastructure (`cloudlinks.cn`) powers cameras sold under many different brand names. **A vulnerability in one brand affects ALL others.**

### Confirmed White-Label Brands

| **DiFang** | China/Global | Manual: "App Name Yoosee" |
| **LS VISION** | China/Global | Manual: "App Name iCSee" |
| **CAMCAMP** | Sweden/EU | Setup requires iCSee app |
| **Cugo** | Global | Manual: "APP YOOSEE" |

### How to Identify a Gwelltimes Camera

1. **WiFi SSID**: Camera broadcasts `GW-XXXX` during setup
2. **App**: Requires Yoosee, YYP2P, or ICSee app
3. **MAC OUI**: `4C:B0:08` (Gwelltimes), `A8:B5:8E` (Bilian/WiFi module)
4. **Cloud**: Connects to `*.cloudlinks.cn` or `*.cloud-links.net`
5. **ONVIF**: Device name starts with `IPC` on port 5000
