CVE-2016-11017: Akips Network Monitor

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 4.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The application login page in AKIPS Network Monitor 15.37 through 16.5 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands via shell metacharacters in the username parameter (a failed login attempt returns the command-injection output to a limited login failure field). This is fixed in 16.6.

Affected products
