Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in Shibby Tomato 1.28.0000. This affects the function start_dhcpc of the file /sbin/rc of the component Web UI. This manipulation causes os command injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. This project is superseded by FreshTomato.
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in Shibby Tomato 1.28.0000 router firmware allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands via the start_dhcpc function in /sbin/rc, reachable through the Web UI. Publicly available exploit code exists per the VulDB advisory. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires (1) network reach to the Shibby Tomato Web UI on a device running firmware 1.28.0000, (2) valid high-privilege (administrator) credentials to the Web UI as indicated by CVSS PR:H, and (3) the ability to submit input that flows into the start_dhcpc function in /sbin/rc - typically by manipulating DHCP-client-related configuration fields exposed through the management interface. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 base score of 7.3 reflects a network attack vector with low complexity but requires high privileges (PR:H), meaning the attacker must already hold administrative credentials on the router's Web UI to reach the vulnerable code path. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has obtained or guessed administrator credentials for a Shibby Tomato 1.28.0000 router's Web UI submits a DHCP-client configuration value containing shell metacharacters; when /sbin/rc invokes start_dhcpc, the injected payload is executed with root privileges. Using the publicly available PoC on Gitee, the attacker installs a persistent backdoor, pivots to LAN-internal hosts, or reconfigures DNS/routing to intercept traffic. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - Shibby Tomato is a discontinued project superseded by FreshTomato, so administrators should migrate affected devices to FreshTomato (after independently verifying that FreshTomato has remediated the equivalent start_dhcpc code path) or replace the device with supported router firmware such as OpenWrt. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify and inventory all Shibby Tomato 1.28.0000 devices in production; implement access controls and monitoring on administrative interfaces. …
