Description
VITEC EZ TV Platform Server before 8.5.0 contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the upload handler that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to upload arbitrary files by supplying a target filename in the X-FILENAME request header with no authentication or file type validation required. Attackers can upload a malicious ASPX file directly to the web-accessible uploads directory, where it is immediately executable by the web server, achieving remote code execution in the context of the web server process. Patches are available for versions 8.3.0, 8.3.1, 8.4.0, and 8.4.1. Users running releases prior to 8.3.0 should upgrade to 8.5.0+.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
The records we use list no fixed release for CVE-2026-82504. Check the upstream advisory for a patched version, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
Treat uploaded files as untrusted until proven otherwise: validate the actual content type rather than the supplied extension, store uploads outside the web root on a volume mounted without execute permission, and rename them to server-generated identifiers so an attacker cannot choose the path a request will later resolve.
