Description
Bolt CMS versions 3.7.0 and earlier contain a chain of vulnerabilities that together allow an authenticated user to achieve remote code execution. A user with valid credentials can inject arbitrary PHP code into the displayname field of the user profile, which is rendered unsanitized in backend templates. The attacker can then list and rename cached session files via the /async/browse/cache/.sessions and /async/folder/rename endpoints. By renaming a .session file to a path under the publicly accessible /files/ directory with a .php extension, the attacker can turn the injected code into an executable web shell. Finally, the attacker triggers the payload via a crafted HTTP GET request to the rogue file. NOTE: The vendor announced that Bolt 3 reached end-of-life after 31 December 2021.
Analysis
Pandora FMS monitoring platform version 7.0NG and earlier contains an authenticated command injection in the net_tools.php functionality. The select_ips parameter is passed to OS commands without sanitization when performing ping operations, allowing authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands on the monitoring server.
Technical Context
The net_tools.php page provides network diagnostic tools (ping, traceroute). The select_ips parameter is incorporated into shell commands without sanitization. Any authenticated Pandora FMS user can inject commands that execute with the web server's privileges on the monitoring server.
Affected Products
['Pandora FMS <= 7.0NG']
Remediation
Update Pandora FMS to a current version. Restrict net_tools functionality to administrators. Sanitize all inputs to shell commands using parameterized execution. Segment monitoring infrastructure from production networks.
