CVE-2023-29047: Imageconverter API endpoints provided methods that were not sufficiently validating and sanitizing client input, allowing to inject arbitrar

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 29/100)

The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
Someone on the same network segment can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.3, NVD 7.3.

Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Imageconverter API endpoints provided methods that were not sufficiently validating and sanitizing client input, allowing to inject arbitrary SQL statements. An attacker with access to the adjacent network and potentially API credentials, could read and modify database content which is accessible to the imageconverter SQL user account. None No publicly available exploits are known.
