CVE-2016-11017
Last modified
CVE-2016-11017 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The application login page in AKIPS Network Monitor 15.37 through 16.5 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands via shell metacharacters in the username parameter (a failed login attempt returns the command-injection output to a limited login failure field). This is fixed in 16.6.. EPSS estimates a 4.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
