Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Information input validation directly prevents code injection by sanitizing crafted HTTP POST requests to the ASWebCommon.srf endpoint.
Flaw remediation addresses the specific RCE vulnerability in Notification Settings through patching as per the vendor advisory.
Least privilege restricts the assignment of System Setting permissions, reducing the attack surface for authenticated exploitation.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2026-7841 is a remote code execution vulnerability in the Notification Settings component of GeoVision GV-ASWeb version 6.2.0. It allows an authenticated user with System Setting permissions to execute arbitrary commands on the server by sending a crafted HTTP POST request to the ASWebCommon.srf backend endpoint, bypassing frontend restrictions. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-94 (Code Injection) with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for complete server compromise.
An attacker requires network access and low-privilege authentication as a user with System Setting permissions to exploit this flaw. By crafting and sending a malicious POST request to the vulnerable endpoint, the attacker can achieve remote code execution, granting high-impact control over confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected server. No user interaction is needed, and the attack has low complexity, making it accessible to moderately skilled adversaries with valid credentials.
