Last modified
CVE-2022-23227 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. NUUO NVRmini2 through 3.11 allows an unauthenticated attacker to upload an encrypted TAR archive, which can be abused to add arbitrary users because of the lack of handle_import_user.php authentication. When combined with another flaw (CVE-2011-5325), it is possible to overwrite arbitrary files under the web root and achieve code execution as root.. CISA has confirmed active exploitation in the wild. EPSS estimates a 49.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
