CVE-2017-6079
Last modified
CVE-2017-6079 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The HTTP web-management application on Edgewater Networks Edgemarc appliances has a hidden page that allows for user-defined commands such as specific iptables routes, etc., to be set. You can use this page as a web shell essentially to execute commands, though you get no feedback client-side from the web application: if the command is valid, it executes. EPSS estimates a 46.85% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
