The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in PHP-CGI implementation. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP request to the application and execute arbitrary OS commands on the system.

Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU4201 (CVE-2012-1823).

2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-5458)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
