    Patch

    🚨Critical - motionEye Authentication Bypass via Password-Hash Cookie (CVE-2026-46488) motionEye trusts client-controlled cookies (meye_username and meye_password_hash) as sufficient authentication material, with no server-side session validation. An attacker who knows a target's username and password-hash value can set or modify these cookies - manually via browser dev tools, or by submitting blank credentials to load them - and impersonate that user, bypassing the login flow entirely. Worse, the admin username and hash live in /etc/motioneye/motion.conf, which is globally readable by default, so any local user with shell access can grab a valid admin hash and take over the admin account. Impact includes account lockout, persistence via password change, and data theft or destruction. 👉Upgrade to motionEye 0.44.0.

    Post summary

    The post discloses a credential bypass flaw in motionEye, provides technical details, and urges users to upgrade to version 0.44.0.
