Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The "system" function receives untrusted input from the user. If the "EnableJSCaching" option is enabled, it is possible to execute arbitrary code provided as the "Module" parameter.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The application passes user-supplied input from the 'Module' parameter directly to a 'system()' function call without sanitization. When the 'EnableJSCaching' option is enabled, an attacker can inject arbitrary shell commands through this parameter, achieving remote code execution with the privileges of the running process.

MitigationDisable the 'EnableJSCaching' option if possible as a temporary workaround. The permanent fix requires implementing strict input validation or parameterized execution to prevent command injection before passing any user-controlled input to the system() function.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the affected product and version
    Locate the application binary or service that utilizes the EnableJSCaching option. Run 'version' command or check the application's about/info page to obtain the installed version number.
    Affected if The version falls within the vulnerable range (compare your installed version to the affected ranges documented by the vendor).
  2. Locate the configuration file for EnableJSCaching
    Search for configuration files (e.g., config.json, settings.ini, or similar) that contain the 'EnableJSCaching' parameter. Common paths include /etc/, /opt/, or the application's working directory.
    Affected if EnableJSCaching is set to 'true', 'enabled', or '1'.
  3. Verify the Module parameter handling
    Examine the application's source code or request handling logic that processes the 'Module' parameter. Look for code paths where this parameter is used in system() or similar execution functions without input validation.
    Affected if The Module parameter is passed directly to a system call without sanitization or validation.
  4. Test for injection via Module parameter
    If the web interface or API accepts a Module parameter, send a test request with a benign payload (e.g., 'test; echo vulnerable' or 'test`whoami`') and observe if command execution occurs in the response or logs.
    Affected if The application reflects executed commands or unexpected output indicating command injection is possible.
  5. Review system logs for suspicious system() invocations
    Check application logs, system logs (syslog, auth.log), or web server access/error logs for unusual system() calls, especially those involving the Module parameter or unusual command execution timestamps.
    Affected if Logs show system() calls with unexpected or injectable content in the Module parameter.

You are affected if EnableJSCaching is enabled AND your version is within the vulnerable range AND the Module parameter is processed without sanitization in system calls.
