CVE-2023-50359
Status: ModifiedMedium (6.7)—
An unchecked return value vulnerability has been reported to affect several QNAP operating system versions. If exploited, the vulnerability could allow local authenticated administrators to place the system in a state that could lead to a crash or other unintended behaviors via unspecified vectors.
We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following versions: QTS 5.1.5.2645 build 20240116 and later QuTS hero h5.1.5.2647 build 20240118 and later
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Base score: 6.7
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.16%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 4
- Score date: 10/5/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
