Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-12-22 23:17 – Updated: 2025-04-15 13:32
VLAI?
Summary
Pi-Hole is a network-wide ad blocking via your own Linux hardware, AdminLTE is a Pi-hole Dashboard for stats and more. In case of an attack, the threat actor will obtain the ability to perform an unauthorized query for blocked domains on `queryads` endpoint. In the case of application, this vulnerability exists because of a lack of validation in code on a root server path: `/admin/scripts/pi-hole/phpqueryads.php.` Potential threat actor(s) are able to perform an unauthorized query search in blocked domain lists. This could lead to the disclosure for any victims' personal blacklists.
