| CVE-2025-34103 | Cri | 0.69 | — | 0.73 | Jul 15, 2025 | An unauthenticated command injection vulnerability exists in WePresent WiPG-1000 firmware versions prior to 2.2.3.0, due to improper input handling in the undocumented /cgi-bin/rdfs.cgi endpoint. The Client parameter is not sanitized before being passed to a system call, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as the web server user. | |
| CVE-2025-34102 | Cri | 0.69 | — | 0.69 | Jul 10, 2025 | A remote code execution vulnerability exists in CryptoLog (PHP version, discontinued since 2009) due to a chained exploitation of SQL injection and command injection vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated attacker can gain shell access as the web server user by first exploiting a SQL injection flaw in login.php to bypass authentication, followed by command injection in logshares_ajax.php to execute arbitrary operating system commands. The login bypass is achieved by submitting crafted SQL via the user POST parameter. Once authenticated, the attacker can abuse the lsid POST parameter in the logshares_ajax.php endpoint to inject and execute a command using $(...) syntax, resulting in code execution under the web context. This exploitation path does not exist in the ASP.NET version of CryptoLog released since 2009. | |
| CVE-2025-34101 | Cri | 0.69 | — | 0.69 | Jul 10, 2025 | An unauthenticated command injection vulnerability exists in Serviio Media Server versions 1.4 through 1.8 on Windows, in the /rest/action API endpoint exposed by the console component (default port 23423). The checkStreamUrl method accepts a VIDEO parameter that is passed unsanitized to a call to cmd.exe, enabling arbitrary command execution under the privileges of the web server. No authentication is required to exploit this issue, as the REST API is exposed by default and lacks access controls. | |
| CVE-2025-34095 | Cri | 0.69 | — | 0.63 | Jul 10, 2025 | An OS command injection vulnerability exists in Mako Server versions 2.5 and 2.6, specifically within the tutorial interface provided by the examples/save.lsp endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker can send a crafted PUT request containing arbitrary Lua os.execute() code, which is then persisted on disk and triggered via a subsequent GET request to examples/manage.lsp. This allows remote command execution on the underlying operating system, impacting both Windows and Unix-based deployments. | |
| CVE-2025-34082 | Cri | 0.69 | — | 0.67 | Jul 3, 2025 | A command injection vulnerability exists in IGEL OS versions prior to 11.04.270 within the Secure Terminal and Secure Shadow services.
