Unauthenticated command injection – Apache Continuum
Apache Continuum is vulnerable to an unauthenticated command injection attack and reflected XSS. The command injection attack works by sending a malicious URL to an authenticated user (let's say the admin). If the victim is logged in and accesses the URL, the attacker could steal the victim's session cookie and impersonate them.
Mitigation:
Ensure that all user input is properly validated and sanitized before being used in any command or query.
