CVE-2017-7977

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions eLux RP versions prior to 5.5.0

Description The issue is related to the Screensavercc component, which lacks input validation measures. This allows an attacker to bypass configuration restrictions and execute arbitrary commands with root privileges by inserting commands into a local configuration dialog in the control panel. The exploitation of this issue can be done remotely.

Recommendations For versions prior to 5.5.0, update to version 5.5.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the control panel's local configuration dialog to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the local configuration dialog until the issue is resolved.
