9.8 CRITICAL

MOOSDB has no client authentication so any connecting party can set the malicious client name (PR:N/AC:L), and injection yields shell code execution as the uMemWatch user (C/I/A:H).

DescriptionCVE.org

MOOS-IvP uMemWatch through 24.8.1 constructs shell commands from attacker-chosen MOOS client names without sanitization. Attackers can inject shell metacharacters into client names to execute arbitrary commands as the uMemWatch process user through unquoted redirection targets in system calls.

AnalysisAI

Remote OS command injection in MOOS-IvP's uMemWatch utility (through version 24.8.1) lets attackers who can connect to the MOOSDB as a client execute arbitrary shell commands as the uMemWatch process user. The uMemWatch memory-monitoring tool builds a shell command string that embeds the attacker-controlled MOOS client name as an unquoted stdout-redirection target, so shell metacharacters in the name are interpreted by the shell. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires network reachability to a MOOSDB instance that accepts client connections (MOOS provides no client authentication, hence PR:N), and requires that the uMemWatch utility be running and monitoring connected clients - uMemWatch is a diagnostic tool, so deployments not running it are not exploitable via this sink. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N, VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) rates this 9.3 and treats it as network-reachable, unauthenticated code execution - defensible given MOOS provides no client authentication, so any party able to open a MOOSDB connection can register an arbitrary client name and trigger the injection when uMemWatch measures it. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Patch available per vendor: apply the upstream fix from MOOS-IvP PR #121 / commit 0b2bd99, which removes shell usage in uMemWatch by allowlisting filename characters (safeFileNamePart) and running the memory helper via fork/execvp (runToFile) instead of system(); rebuild and redeploy uMemWatch from a patched tree. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems running MOOS-IvP through version 24.8.1 and evaluate MOOSDB network exposure and access controls. …
