CVE-2024-8940Network attack vector

Unauthenticated malicious file upload via unchecked POST

Published Sep 24, 2024 · Updated Sep 24, 2024

Unrestricted file upload in NetMake Scriptcase 9.4.019 allows remote attackers to place malicious files on the server via POST requests. The jQuery File Upload PHP endpoint accepts and stores attacker-controlled files without properly verifying their types. No authentication or user interaction is required; the consequence is attacker-chosen content stored on the server, with further impact determined by server handling.
