QNAP® Security today announced  the release of new QVR 5.0.3 firmware for VioStor NVR, which features Qstart  for easy system setup, includes a GNU Bash security patch update, and supports six new Canon® IP  cameras for compatibility.

“To solve the hassle of complex network settings  that many traditional CCTV users encounter when transferring to using NVR  systems, Qstart allows auto configuration, auto port detection and  comprehensive switch control for easy management,” said Joe Jen, senior product  marketing manager of QNAP Security.

Qstart simplifies system initialization and  network switch control for users to experience effortless NVR installation and  remote maintenance. While providing quick initial setting in few clicks, Qstart   integrates major functions of PoE switches and can set up camera IPs  automatically. Users can easily manage PoE or network on/off and monitor devices status and network traffic flow. Its  intuitive GUI and event notification allow for precise failure detection and  efficient troubleshooting.

QVR 5.0.3 further fixes the GNU Bash Environment  Variable Command Injection Vulnerability (also  known as “Shellshock”) CVE-2014-6277, CVE-2014-6278, CVE-2014-7186 and CVE-2014-7187,  though they do not see direct impact to the VioStor NVR system.
