Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Open On-Chip Debugger (OpenOCD) version 0.10.0

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to conduct cross-protocol scripting attacks and execute arbitrary commands via a crafted web site, by not blocking attempts to use HTTP POST for sending data to 127.0.0.1 port 4444.

Recommendations: For OpenOCD version 0.10.0, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the HTTP POST endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
