AnalysisAI

Dataprobe iBoot-PDU FW versions prior to 1.42.06162022 contain a vulnerability where a specific function does not sanitize the input provided by the user, which may expose the affected to an OS. Rated critical severity (CVSS 9.8), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. This OS Command Injection vulnerability could allow attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host.

RemediationAI

A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Avoid passing user input to shell commands. Use language-specific APIs instead of shell execution. Apply strict input validation with allowlists.
