Hongjing e‑HR allows data theft via crafted request

CVE-2023-54399 · published 23 days ago
Summary

The Hongjing e‑HR system (versions before 8.2) lets anyone on the internet send a specially formed request to the /servlet/codesettree page and retrieve data from its database, including user credentials. This happens because the system does not properly clean the input it receives. Apply the vendor’s update or patch the affected page to block unsafe input.

What to do
  • Update hongjing e-hr to version 8.2 or later.
