EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 85% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

bunkerweb is an Open-source and next-generation Web Application Firewall (WAF). Prior to BunkerWeb 1.6.12 and BunkerWeb PRO 0.57, authenticated Host header handling in the BunkerWeb UI and API improperly validated and neutralized user-controlled input in a configuration-dependent path, allowing a low-privileged authenticated user to escalate privileges and affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the BunkerWeb instance. This issue is fixed in BunkerWeb version 1.6.12 and BunkerWeb PRO version 0.57.
