CVE-2007-5289

no score yetEPSS 8.7%

hp: no CVSS score yet. EPSS 8.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

HP Mercury Quality Center (QC) 9.2 and earlier, and possibly TestDirector, relies on cached client-side scripts to implement "workflow" and decisions about the "capability" of a user, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted use of the Open Test Architecture (OTA) API, as demonstrated by modifying (1) common.tds, (2) defects.tds, (3) manrun.tds, (4) req.tds, (5) testlab.tds, or (6) testplan.tds in %tmp%\TD_80, and then setting the file's properties to read-only.

EPSS: 8.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days; higher than 95% of CVEs (scores of 2026-10-31)
