I'm curious if and how FLIR will react to this ☺️
Well done IPVM, thank you!

Doesn’t Dahua actually assemble the Flir TC series? Are we sure of who makes the FC series? I only have had my hands on the FC-618 for a short period and don’t recall at the moment if it was Dahua-esque.

It might be beneficial to search for FLIR OEM partners that just use FLIR's thermal modules and combine it with a custom (and more secure) encoder chipset (which includes all network functions).
I do not want to do any promotion here, but these partners exist.

There is now a software fix available from FLIR for these vulnerabilities, the report has been updated with the following section to address this:
UPDATE - Patch Released
FLIR released a patch for these vulnerabilities. Upgrade instructions are outlined in the release notes for the patch, which requires updating each camera individually via its web interface. Because this is a patch, and not a full firmware release, users need to first be on a supported version (1.3.4 or 1.3.5), and will need to update their firmware to one of these versions before applying the patch if running older software on the camera.
