Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2024-48760 is a critical-severity Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type (CWE-434) vulnerability in Gestioip Gestioip. 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 1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-3 (Malicious Code Protection) and CM-7 (Least Functionality) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
GestioIP version 3.5.7 contains an arbitrary file upload flaw tracked as CVE-2024-48760 and assigned CWE-434. The vulnerability resides in the application’s file upload function, which permits an unauthenticated remote user to supply a malicious perlcmd.cgi file that overwrites the legitimate upload.cgi script and thereby enables execution of operating-system commands.
An attacker can reach the upload endpoint over the network without credentials or user interaction. Successful exploitation grants full control over the host, allowing arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the web-server process and satisfying the CVSS 9.8 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H.
The EPSS score for this CVE rose from lower values after disclosure to a peak of 0.8180 on 2026-05-14 before receding to the current level of 0.7091, indicating that exploitation interest materialized well after the initial publication and that the issue merits renewed monitoring.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.
Least functionality restricts the file types and automatic processing capabilities the system will accept.
Mobile-code controls define, authorize, and block unacceptable uploaded code before automatic processing occurs.

Restricting execution of unauthorized software directly blocks dangerous uploaded files from running.
Hardened configuration baselines can enforce allowed file types and processing rules.
Secure development practices include input validation and file-type restrictions that prevent this weakness.

Configuration and acceptance testing verify that file-upload handling enforces allowed types and does not permit dangerous content to be stored or executed.
Secure-coding guidelines and security testing explicitly address restrictions on allowed file types and upload handling, reducing the risk that dangerous file uploads are accepted without validation.
Mandated testing for malicious content and known vulnerabilities reduces the likelihood that an outsourced component will contain or accept dangerous file types that could later be uploaded or executed.
Application allow-listing and pre-use scanning of received files directly blocks the introduction of executable content that has not been vetted, eliminating the primary vector for unrestricted dangerous file uploads.
