Vulnerability Information

Severity: High
Vulnerability Published: 2012-10-22
Patch Published: 2012-10-22
CVE [?]: CVE-2012-3001
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:mutiny:standard

Synopsis

The remote host contains a network monitoring application that is affected by a command injection vulnerability.

Description

The remote web server hosts a version of Mutiny earlier than 4.5-1.12. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by a command injection vulnerability that could allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands via the network interface menu.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to version 4.5-1.12 or later.

Public Exploits
