HikVision Wi-Fi IP cameras come with a default SSID “davinci”, with a setting of no WiFi encryption or authentication. Depending on the firmware version, there is no configuration option within the camera to turn off Wi-Fi. If a camera is deployed via wired ethernet, then the WiFi settings won’t be adjusted, and a rogue AP with the SSID “davinci” can be associated to the camera to provide a new attack vector via WiFi to a wired network camera. Tested on firmware versions 5.3.0, 5.4.0, and 5.4.5 and model number DS-2CD2432F-IW.
