Vulnerabilities (CVE)

Reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) in Alkacon's OpenCms v18.0, which allows an attacker to execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser by sending the victim a malicious URL containing the ‘q’ parameter in ‘/search/index.html’. This vulnerability can be exploited to steal sensitive user information such as session cookies, or to perform actions while impersonating the user.

jsPDF is a library to generate PDFs in JavaScript. Prior to 4.2.0, user control of the first argument of the `addImage` method results in denial of service. If given the possibility to pass unsanitized image data or URLs to the `addImage` method, a user can provide a harmful GIF file that results in out of memory errors and denial of service. Harmful GIF files have large width and/or height entries in their headers, which lead to excessive memory allocation. Other affected methods are: `html`.

Harmful GIF files have large width and/or height entries in their headers, which lead to excessive memory allocation. Other affected methods are: `html`. The vulnerability has been fixed in jsPDF 4.2.0. As a workaround, sanitize image data or URLs before passing it to the addImage method or one of the other affected methods.

Selea Targa IP OCR-ANPR Camera contains an unauthenticated vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access live video streams without authentication. Attackers can directly connect to RTP/RTSP or M-JPEG streams by requesting specific endpoints like p1.mjpg or p1.264 to view camera footage.

SnapGear Management Console SG560 version 3.1.5 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows attackers to perform administrative actions without user consent. Attackers can craft a malicious web page that automatically submits a form to create a new super user account with full administrative privileges when a logged-in user visits the page.

Selea Targa IP OCR-ANPR Camera contains an unauthenticated command injection vulnerability in utils.php that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands. Attackers can exploit the 'addr' and 'port' parameters to inject commands and gain www-data user access through chained local file inclusion techniques.

Selea Targa IP OCR-ANPR Camera contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'files_list' parameter that allows attackers to inject malicious HTML and script code. Attackers can send a POST request to /cgi-bin/get_file.php with crafted payload to execute arbitrary scripts in victim's browser session.

SnapGear Management Console SG560 3.1.5 contains a file manipulation vulnerability that allows authenticated users to read, write, and delete files using the edit_config_files CGI script. Attackers can manipulate POST request parameters in /cgi-bin/cgix/edit_config_files to access and modify files outside the intended /etc/config/ directory.

Selea Targa IP OCR-ANPR Camera contains a hard-coded developer password vulnerability that allows unauthorized configuration access through an undocumented page. Attackers can exploit the hidden endpoint by using the hard-coded password 'Selea781830' to enable configuration upload and overwrite device settings.

When the first rule in a chain iterates over a collection (like `MULTIPART_PART_HEADERS`), the capture variables (`TX:0`, `TX:1`) get overwritten with each iteration. Only the last captured value is available to the chained rule, which means malicious charsets in earlier parts can be missed if a later part has a legitimate charset. Versions 4.22.0 and 3.3.8 patch the issue.
