          GeoServer is an open-source software server written in Java that provides
          the ability to view, edit, and share geospatial data.
          It is designed to be a flexible, efficient solution for distributing geospatial data
          from a variety of sources such as Geographic Information System (GIS) databases,
          web-based data, and personal datasets.
          In the GeoServer versions < 2.23.6, >= 2.24.0, < 2.24.4 and >= 2.25.0, < 2.25.1,
          multiple OGC request parameters allow Remote Code Execution (RCE) by unauthenticated users
          through specially crafted input against a default GeoServer installation due to unsafely
          evaluating property names as XPath expressions.
          An attacker can abuse this by sending a POST request with a malicious xpath expression
          to execute arbitrary commands as root on the system.
