CVE-2020-36825: ** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** ** DISPUTED ** A vulnerability has been found in cyberaz0r WebRAT up to 20191222 and classified as critical. This vulnerability affects the function download_file of the file Server/api.php. The manipulation of the argument name leads to unrestricted upload. The attack can be initiated remotely. The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The patch is identified as 0c394a795b9c10c07085361e6fcea286ee793701. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. VDB-257782 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. NOTE: The issue, discovered in a 20-stars GitHub project (now private) by its author, had CVE requested by a third party 4 years post-resolution, referencing the fix commit (now a broken link). Due to minimal attention and usage, it should not be eligible for CVE according to the project maintainer.
The exploitability of CVE-2020-36825 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
CVE-2020-36825 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2020-36825, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2020-36825, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
The EPSS score estimates the probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the near future.
EPSS Score: 0.045% (probability of exploit)
EPSS Percentile: 18.4%
(lower percentile = lower relative risk)
This vulnerability is less risky than approximately 81.6% of others.
