**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Gigamon GigaVUE version 5.5.01.11
**Description**
An issue was discovered in the upload functionality, allowing an arbitrary file upload for an authenticated user. If an executable file is uploaded into the www-root directory, it could yield remote code execution via the `filename` parameter.
**Recommendations**
For Gigamon GigaVUE version 5.5.01.11, consider restricting access to the upload functionality to prevent arbitrary file uploads until a patch is available.

At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
