Summary
CVE-2023-36819 is a vulnerability affecting the Knowage business analytics suite, specifically versions prior to 8.1.8 in the 6.x.x branch. The issue lies in the `/_knowage/restful-services/dossier/importTemplateFile_` endpoint which allows authenticated users to download templates, but fails to sanitize the `_templateName_` parameter.
