ZKTeco ZKAccess Security System 5.3.1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary HTML and script code by injecting malicious payloads through the 'holidayname' and 'memo' POST parameters. Attackers can submit crafted requests with script code in these parameters to compromise user browser sessions and steal sensitive information.

Remedy

The affected software ZKBioSecurity and ZKAccess have been officially discontinued. It is recommended that users switch to using ZKBio CVSecurity software. ZKBio CVSecurity has fixed these vulnerabilities. It is recommended that customers use the latest version of ZKBio CVSecurity to eliminate risks.
