CVE-2005-3618
HighSummary
A CSRF vulnerability in the management interface of VMware ESX Server allows a remote attacker to perform unauthorized actions as an administrator via crafted URLs, such as changing a password using the setUsr operation.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can take over the ESX server by changing the administrator password or performing other critical operations, leading to full compromise of the virtualization environment.
Recommendation
Apply the appropriate patches for vulnerable ESX Server versions (2.0.2 patch 1, 2.1.3 patch 1, 2.5.3 patch 2) immediately and consider implementing CSRF protection mechanisms such as anti-CSRF tokens.

- CVE-2026-115812Critical
A relative path traversal during model archive extraction in AWS Multi Model Server 1.1.11 and earlier allows remote actors to execute arbitrary code via a crafted model archive. The project is end of life and no fixed version is available.
- CVE-2026-55486Critical
In Goobi viewer from version 25.08 to before 26.05, the IIIF Auth 2.0 endpoints auth/login and auth/token accept an origin query parameter without validation and embed it into the Content-Security-Policy header and an HTML response body as a postMessage argument. Since the attacker controls both calls, the unescaped value yields reflected XSS.
- CVE-2026-53942Critical
In conda/conda prior to commit 9c0f238, a GitHub Actions Pwn Request vulnerability remains in .github/workflows/update.yml. It is triggered by comments containing @conda-bot render or @conda-bot recreate, allowing an untrusted PR to reach Jinja2 template rendering in a privileged token context.
- CVE-2026-46652Critical
In Goobi viewer from version 24.03 to before 26.05, ExternalFilesDownloader.getFilename() extracts the filename from a server-supplied Content-Disposition header and passes it directly to Path.resolve() without stripping directory components. A malicious HTTP server can supply an absolute path or ../ sequences, writing attacker-controlled content to an arbitrary path, leading to remote code execution.
- CVE-2026-46651Critical
In Goobi viewer from version 24.03 to before 26.05, the DownloadTaskEndpoint WebSocket endpoint (/tasks/download/monitor.socket) in goobi-viewer-core accepts download requests from unauthenticated users. This issue has been patched in version 26.05.
- CVE-2026-53921Critical
In odhcpd (the DHCPv6/DHCPv4/RA server used by OpenWrt) prior to version 25.12, the DHCPv6 IA response handler writes past a fixed 512-byte stack buffer (pdbuf) when a single DHCPv6 REQUEST carries enough IA options to nearly exhaust the reply space. Two independent overflow sites exist in the same call chain, both reachable over the network via a single unauthenticated UDP packet. odhcpd runs as root on OpenWrt, and embedded targets often lack stack canaries and ASLR, making code execution realistic.
- CVE-2026-114357Critical
In DJI CrystalSky ZS600C firmware v0.3.9.7 through v0.6.6.9, the Android Debug Bridge daemon (adbd) lacks authentication for a critical function. The device ships with ro.adb.secure=0 and USB ADB enabled by default; once ADB over TCP is enabled, the same unauthenticated shell (uid 2000) is reachable over the network. This provides a foothold for privilege escalation to root.
- CVE-2026-57116Critical
In PraisonAI from version 4.2.1 to before 4.6.59, the AgentOS FastAPI deployment surface remains unauthenticated despite the earlier fix for CVE-2026-40151. The chat route directly calls agent.chat(request.message), and both no-auth and wrong-bearer requests execute the deployed agent.

Original NVD description (English source)
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the management interface for VMware ESX Server 2.0.x before 2.0.2 patch 1, 2.1.x before 2.1.3 patch 1, and 2.x before 2.5.3 patch 2 allows allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions as the administrator via URLs, as demonstrated using the setUsr operation to change a password. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged with CVE-2005-3619 to automatically perform the attacks.
