CVE-2022-1813Network attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unsanitized CMS URL

Published May 22, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

OS command injection in reNgine before 1.2.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands through CMS detection. The get_cms_details function interpolates the submitted target URL into a shell command and passes it to os.system without quoting or separation. A user able to submit a scan target can run commands with the reNgine worker privileges, allowing hosted data access, modification, or service interruption.
