In the meantime, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can be used to monitor and filter out suspicious traffic. Regularly updating and patching software, as well as implementing proper input sanitization techniques, can also help prevent similar vulnerabilities in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overview The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system has recently identified a severe security vulnerability in the Hospital Management System 4.0 by phpgurukul.
