This repository contains a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2018-6479, a denial of service vulnerability affecting Netwave IP Cameras. The exploit is implemented in a single Python script (dos_poc.py) that sends a massive HTTP POST request to the root path of the camera's web server (port 80). No authentication is required, and the attack can be performed remotely. Upon successful exploitation, the camera becomes unresponsive and stops streaming audio and video. The repository also includes a README.md file with background information, vulnerability details, and usage instructions. The exploit is a straightforward network-based DoS attack and does not include any payload customization or advanced features.
