Hello, so basically in this thread I am gonna show you how break in to ip cams, brute forcing the rtsp protocol. Lets talk about what is RTSP
 

RTSP is a protocol used really common on ip cams, to be able to connect them and watch the content, for example, you can use VLC and add a rtsp route from a ip cam, and watch the videos saved from it.
This protocol, most of the time, is used on the port 554, so we will brute force it to try to get the credentials.
This is most effective than do it on the web configuration page, because this one, most of the time, have a login attemps limitation, and the RTSP one not.

Also, the rtsp and web configuration login, uses same credentials, so, if the rtsp credentials are admin:admin on the login of the web configuration, will be the same admin:admin

TSP routes
Very important thing here, to connect to the rtsp of a ip cameras, you also have to specify the route of the login, for example, 127.8.6.3/steam1
So you have also to brute force the routues, so then you are able to use the credentials to login. But dont worry, this is really easy, with a tool that I am gonna show you, you gonna do it all automatically
INSTALLING RTSPBRUTE
First of all, lets start installing the tool, called rtspbrute from: https:// pypi. org/project/rtspbrute/
You have to run this command: pip install rtspbrute on your console
