"According to its self-reported version, the instance of ZKTeco BioTime running on the remote web server is prior to
9.0.1 (20240617.19506). It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  - A path traversal vulnerability in the iclock API allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files via
    supplying a crafted payload. (CVE-2023-38950)

  - An authenticated attacker can create or overwrite arbitrary files on the server via crafted requests to
    /base/sftpsetting/ endpoints that abuse a path traversal issue in the Username field and a lack of input
    sanitization on the SSH Key field. Overwriting specific files may lead to arbitrary code execution as NT
    AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. (CVE-2023-38951)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's 
self-reported version number.");
