FKIE_CVE-2024-44069

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-08-19 02:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 07:52
Summary
Pi-hole before 6 allows unauthenticated admin/api.php?setTempUnit= calls to change the temperature units of the web dashboard. NOTE: the supplier reportedly does "not consider the bug a security issue" but the specific motivation for letting arbitrary persons change the value (Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin), seen by the device owner, is unclear.
