CVE-2007-4583 describes multiple absolute path traversal vulnerabilities in the nvUtility.Utility.1 ActiveX control (nvUtility.dll 1.0.14.0) within ACTi Network Video Recorder (NVR) SP2 2.0. These flaws allow remote attackers to create, overwrite, or delete arbitrary files on the system by providing full pathnames to the SaveXMLFile and DeleteXMLFile methods. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N), indicating a network-based attack with low complexity, requiring no authentication, and primarily impacting integrity (file modification/deletion). While the CVSS score is moderate, its FAUCET Risk Score is high at 87/100, suggesting a more significant practical risk. There is no evidence of active exploitation in the wild, and it is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog. However, exploit code demonstrating the insecure methods is publicly available on ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are minimal.
