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, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); 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.

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.
