Summary
Ech0 before 4.4.3 lacks authorization checks on system log endpoints allowing any authenticated non-admin user to read and stream all server logs. Attackers can access historical logs and real-time log streams via GET /api/system/logs, GET /api/system/logs/stream, and WS /ws/system/logs to gather reconnaissance data including internal file paths, error stack traces, and application state.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
