CVE-2021-38617

Estado: ModificadaAlta (8.8)—

In Eigen NLP 3.10.1, a lack of access control on the /auth/v1/user/ user creation endpoint allows a standard user to create a super user account with a defined password. This directly leads to privilege escalation.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
