Summary

CVE-2024-11131 is a critical-severity Out-of-bounds Read (CWE-125) vulnerability in Synology Bc500 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Data Obfuscation (T1001); ranked in the top 45% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

A vulnerability involving an out-of-bounds read in the video interface allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected Synology camera devices. The issue impacts BC500, CC400W, and TC500 models running Camera Firmware versions prior to 1.2.0-0525 and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8.

Unauthenticated attackers with network access can exploit the flaw via unspecified vectors to achieve code execution, potentially compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device without requiring user interaction.

The official Synology advisory Synology_SA_24_24 recommends upgrading to firmware version 1.2.0-0525 or later to address the issue.

EPSS scores for the CVE rose from lower values to a peak of 0.1011 on 2026-05-18 before receding to the current level of 0.0552, indicating a period of increased exploitation interest after disclosure.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation directly finds out-of-bounds read flaws through static analysis, fuzzing, and dynamic bounds checks.

Secure engineering principles require bounds checking and memory-safe constructs that stop out-of-bounds reads from being introduced.

Process isolation confines the effects of an out-of-bounds read to the compromised process.

Input validation rejects malformed indices or lengths that would otherwise cause reads outside buffer bounds.
