CVE-2026-79898

Fortra BoKS Manager crlserver command injection vulnerability

Published Oct 1, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 9.1 Critical EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Fortra BoKS Manager contains a command injection vulnerability in crlserver. An authenticated user authorized to add CRL URLs through BCC, the WSI REST or SOAP API, or the cacrl command-line interface could cause shell command substitution to be processed by crlserver as root on the BoKS Master. BCC and WSI provide network-accessible administration paths and do not require a local sudo or suexec rule; non-root use of cacrl requires such a rule.

Remediation

Vendor Solution
