CVE-2022-29303SolarView Compact — the test mail form runs commands

The test mail form in SolarView Compact 6.00 passes what it is given into a shell, so anyone who reaches the web server on this solar monitoring unit runs commands on it. Exploit code is public.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Update SolarView Compact past 6.00, and take these monitoring units off the public internet — they are found exposed far more often than they are patched.
