CVE-2017-7221 EXPLOIT
8.8
HIGH · CVSS 3.0 · EPSS 4.2% (pctl 91)
Patch early
A public exploit exists.
Description
OpenText Documentum Content Server has an inadequate protection mechanism against SQL injection, which allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code with super-user privileges by leveraging the availability of the dm_bp_transition docbase method with a user-created dm_procedure object, as demonstrated by use of a backspace character in an injected string. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-2513.
