VU#234131: ViewSonic vCast media streaming service allows unauthenticated screen exfiltration and device compromise
CVE-2026-82987CVE-2026-82988CVE-2026-82989
Overview ViewSonic vCast software, which is included in ViewBoard smartboard devices, contains multiple vulnerabilities that an attacker can chained to achieve full device compromise. Description ViewSonic ViewBoards are widely used smart display devices (smartboard), typically deoloyed in enterprise and educational environments. vCast is ViewSonic’s proprietary software suite for wireless connection between smartboards, which are Android-based systems, and devices running a client application. Three distinct vulnerabilities, all invoking unauthenticated endpoints, have been identified within the vCast suite. CVE-2026-82989 vCast’s media streaming service allows a remote attacker to exfiltrate JPEG images of screen content via GET requests to an unauthenticated /snapshot or /screen API endpoint. CVE-2026-82988 vCast’s Android Package Kit (APK) delivery mechanism allows a remote attacker to trigger unprivileged file installation by providing a malicious APK URL through an unauthenticated download endpoint. CVE-2026-82987 vCast’s network services allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary input into service endpoints via HTTP requests to exposed unauthenticated endpoints Impact An unauthenticated attacker can chain these vulnerabilities via a shared network to deliver and execute arbitrary code on a vCast-based device without user interaction. Potential device-level impact includes unauthorized access to displayed content, persistent installation and execution of arbitrary app
