Description
The Calamaris log exporter CGI (/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/calamaris.dat) in IPFire 2.29 does not properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating parameter values into a shell command. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject arbitrary OS commands by embedding shell metacharacters in any of the following parameters BYTE_UNIT, DAY_BEGIN, DAY_END, HIST_LEVEL, MONTH_BEGIN, MONTH_END, NUM_CONTENT, NUM_DOMAINS, NUM_HOSTS, NUM_URLS, PERF_INTERVAL, YEAR_BEGIN, YEAR_END.
Analysis
The Calamaris log exporter CGI (/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/calamaris.dat) in IPFire 2.29 does not properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating parameter values into a shell command. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical Context
This vulnerability is classified as OS Command Injection (CWE-78), which allows attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host. The Calamaris log exporter CGI (/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/calamaris.dat) in IPFire 2.29 does not properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating parameter values into a shell command. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject arbitrary OS commands by embedding shell metacharacters in any of the following parameters BYTE_UNIT, DAY_BEGIN, DAY_END, HIST_LEVEL, MONTH_BEGIN, MONTH_END, NUM_CONTENT, NUM_DOMAINS, NUM_HOSTS, NUM_URLS, PERF_INTERVAL, YEAR_BEGIN, YEAR_END. Affected products include: Ipfire.
Affected Products
Ipfire.
Remediation
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Avoid passing user input to shell commands. Use language-specific APIs instead of shell execution. Apply strict input validation with allowlists.
