Synopsis

The remote web server is running a configuration management application that is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of Novell ZENworks Configuration Management (ZCM) running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'uid' POST parameter in the /zenworks/UploadServlet script.
