CVE-2026-84318
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-9jww-cxg5-rj9m ↗EUVD-2026-97908 ↗
description
nginx-ui versions from 2.0.0-rc.6 through versions before 2.4.1 do not validate configuration submitted through the MCP configuration-addition tool. An authenticated attacker can add prohibited Nginx directives and reload Nginx; this can lead to code execution when supported scripting modules are installed.
mitigation
Upgrade nginx-ui to version 2.4.1. Until upgraded, restrict access to authenticated nginx-ui and MCP users, and limit or disable the MCP configuration-addition capability where possible.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
source signals
