AI-suggested

Since the product reached end of service in March 2026, users should consider upgrading to version 5.6.2 or later if available, or migrating to a supported product. Until then, restrict access to the vulnerable CGI endpoints and limit user privileges to reduce exploitation risk.

Description

XWEB EVO versions prior to 5.6.2 contain a command injection vulnerability in the setuid-root Lua CGI interpreter 'wlua'. The interpreter executes system calls on unsanitized input, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary commands with root privileges via a .lua CGI endpoint. The product line reached end of service in March 2026.
