🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check the QR Menü version in the application interface or configuration files. If version is between s1.05.05 and v1.05.12 (exclusive), the system is vulnerable.
Check Version:
Check application admin panel or configuration files for version information.
Verify Fix Applied:
After patching, verify the version shows v1.05.12 or higher in the application interface.
