CVE-2026-84403

Botslab G980H Dashcams Missing Authentication for Critical Function

Published Sep 24, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 6.9 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

The Botslab G980H dash camera firmware does not require authenticated pairing or client binding before permitting access to Bluetooth Low Energy communications and GATT characteristics. An unauthenticated attacker within Bluetooth range could intercept or directly retrieve sensitive device information, including device identifiers, firmware information, and protected WiFi credentials.

Analysis

Technical impact

A flaw in the Botslab G980H dash camera firmware allows any nearby Bluetooth Low Energy device to read GATT characteristics without authenticating or binding, enabling an attacker to capture device identifiers, firmware information, and protected WiFi credentials. The vulnerability corresponds to an authentication bypass weakness (CWE‑306) and could lead to unauthorized data disclosure and future network intrusion.

Affected Systems

Botslab G980H dash cameras – affected firmware versions are not specified in the advisory.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates a moderate impact, but the attacker needs only to be within Bluetooth range. EPSS data is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no publicly documented exploitation. Nevertheless, because the flaw permits unauthenticated access to sensitive configuration data, the risk of local compromise remains high if a malicious actor is physically nearby.

Affected Products

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
