AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an unsanitized input in EMLOG‑Pro 2.6.29 that permits the injection of cross‑site scripting payloads. By exploiting the flaw, an attacker can upload a file that is processed as a web shell, enabling them to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the web server. This can lead to complete compromise of the affected hosting environment.

Affected Systems

The only product explicitly noted is EMLOG‑Pro, version 2.6.29. No additional vendor or product names are listed, and the supplied references only mention the affected e‑blog platform. Consequently, all installations running EMLOG‑Pro 2.6.29 without a later or patched release are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVE has a CVSS score of 6.1, an EPSS score of less than 1%, and is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely exploit path involves sending a specially crafted upload request over the public web interface. Because the vulnerability allows a cross‑site scripting payload to trigger a malicious shell upload, the risk is significant: successful exploitation could give an attacker full control over the web server. Administrators should consider patching promptly.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Check the EMLOG‑Pro vendor's website or support portal for an update that addresses the XSS vulnerability and apply it.
  • If no update is available, limit the upload functionality to strictly defined MIME types and file extensions, and store uploaded content outside the web‑accessible directory to prevent execution of malicious scripts.
  • Deploy a Web Application Firewall or reinforce input validation to detect and block XSS payloads on all input endpoints, especially those handling file uploads.
