Geoserver unauthenticated Remote Code Execution

Disclosed

Description

GeoServer is an open-source software server written in Java that provides
the ability to view, edit, and share geospatial data.
It is designed to be a flexible, efficient solution for distributing geospatial data
from a variety of sources such as Geographic Information System (GIS) databases,
web-based data, and personal datasets.
In the GeoServer versions = 2.25.0,
multiple OGC request parameters allow Remote Code Execution (RCE) by unauthenticated users
through specially crafted input against a default GeoServer installation due to unsafely
evaluating property names as XPath expressions.
An attacker can abuse this by sending a POST request with a malicious xpath expression
to execute arbitrary commands as root on the system.
