Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
XWEB EVO versions 5.2.3 through before 5.7.0 contains a pre-authentication OS command injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands by injecting shell metacharacters into the username field of login.lua, cleanout.lua, or api.lua before the password check occurs. Attackers can exploit this flaw combined with the setuid-root wlua interpreter to execute commands with root privileges, achieving full system compromise.
