Hackers Compromised 14,500+ Dahua Devices Using Credential Attacks, Auth Bypasses, and P2P

Cybersecurity researchers have detailed a campaign, dubbed Operation CameraSwarm, that compromised over 14,500 Dahua devices between June and July 2026. The attackers utilized credential stuffing, two authentication bypass vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-33044 and CVE-2021-33045), and a peer-to-peer (P2P) relay technique to gain access. The compromised devices were primarily located in Ukraine and Russia, and users are advised to update firmware and disable P2P services where unnecessary.
