    ZombieLoad CVE-2018-12130

    CVE-2019-11091

    		 Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) security issues could let an attacker execute code or extract sensitive data that are otherwise protected by the Intel processors’ architectural mechanisms.  

    CVE-2018-12126 — Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (Fallout)

    CVE-2018-12127 — Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling

    CVE-2018-12130 — Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (ZombieLoad)

    		 Update DCE to v7.7.0
    ZipSlip CVE-2018-7807

    Data Center Expert allows for the upload of a zip file from its user interface to the server. A carefully crafted, malicious file could be mistakenly uploaded by an authenticated user via this feature which could contain path traversal file names. As such, it could allow for the arbitrary upload of files contained with the zip onto the server file system outside of the intended directory. This is leveraging the more commonly known ZipSlip vulnerability within Java code.
