Summary

CVE-2023-36821 is a vulnerability affecting Uptime Kuma, a self-hosted monitoring tool. This issue permits authenticated attackers to install malicious plugins prior to version 1.22.1, leading to potential remote code execution. Uptime Kuma offers a plugin installation feature from an official list, which is currently disabled in the web interface but still accessible through API endpoints.
