AI Analysis

Impact

flaw exists in the ping.php endpoint of TrxTimeATTENDANCE, allowing an attacker to run arbitrary commands on the host operating system. This results in full remote code execution, giving the attacker complete control over the affected system and any data or services it hosts.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects TREXOM’s TrxTimeATTENDANCE software, all releases prior to version 1.9.6.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.3 indicates a critical severity. Because the attack requires no authentication and is delivered via an HTTP request to the publicly accessible ping.php endpoint, the likelihood of exploitation is high. The EPSS score of 3% confirms a non-negligible but moderate probability of exploitation, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. This combination of unauthenticated remote exploitation, high severity, and measurable exploitation probability warrants immediate attention.

Remediation

Vendor Solution

Update to version 1.9.6


Vendor Workaround

Block all HTTP requests to the ping.php endpoint at the web server or firewall level.


OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the vendor-released update to TrxTimeATTENDANCE version 1.9.6.
  • Block all HTTP traffic to the ping.php endpoint at the web server or firewall level as a temporary workaround.
  • Restrict external access to the TrxTimeATTENDANCE server by limiting incoming connections to trusted IP ranges or placing the system behind a hardened perimeter firewall.
