Summary

CVE-2022-35914 is a critical-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Glpi-Project Glpi. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, ranked in the top 0.0% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; CISA has added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

The vulnerability is a PHP code injection flaw tracked as CVE-2022-35914, affecting the htmLawedTest.php file within the htmlawed module bundled with GLPI versions through 10.0.2. It is assigned CWE-74 and carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, reflecting network-accessible, unauthenticated exploitation that can fully compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can directly invoke the test script over HTTP to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server. Successful exploitation grants the attacker the ability to run operating-system commands, read or modify application data, and maintain persistent access without requiring credentials or user interaction.

Public references include a GLPI release page for obtaining patches and a functional proof-of-concept script that demonstrates command injection against the vulnerable endpoint. The associated EPSS score has reached a peak of 0.9751 with a current value of 0.9439, indicating sustained and substantial exploitation interest following disclosure.

Mitigating Controls

Likely Mitigating Controls AI

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

addresses: CWE-74

Developer assessments and testing (including injection-focused techniques) identify improper neutralization of special elements, and the verifiable flaw remediation corrects them pre-deployment.

addresses: CWE-74

Identifies indicators of injection attacks (command, SQL, LDAP, etc.) via anomaly and attack monitoring.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

A.8.15 Logging partial match
finds

Logging supports detection of injection attempts but does not prevent the weakness.

finds

Monitoring activities can identify active injection attacks after they occur.

blocks

A.8.25 mandates a secure SDLC process that includes secure coding guidelines, security requirements, checkpoints, testing (scans/penetration), and developer training to reduce injection flaws, but does not itself enforce or guarantee neutralization of special elements at runtime.

blocks

Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection attacks in software design.

blocks

A.8.27 mandates security-by-design principles (including distrust external input, data validation/sanitization, secure architecture layers, and design reviews against attack patterns) that reach injection when applied to output construction; this stops exploitation for a minority slice (e.g. where principles drive sanitization) but leaves most code-level injection defects untouched without further implementation rigor.

prevents

Secure coding standards require proper neutralization of special elements, directly addressing CWE-74.

Hardening callouts derived

DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.

  • No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-74, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
