CVE-2021-36356 is a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability affecting KRAMER VIAware products through August 2021. It stems from an incomplete fix for a previous vulnerability, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code by manipulating file paths in ajaxPages/writeBrowseFilePathAjax.php. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical) and an EPSS score indicating high exploitability, this vulnerability presents a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and complete compromise potential (confidentiality, integrity, availability). While not on the CISA KEV catalog or actively exploited in the wild, public exploit code exists in ExploitDB and Nuclei templates, indicating a high likelihood of future exploitation. Despite its severity, there is minimal community discussion or media coverage surrounding this CVE.
