CVE-2022-44794Network attack vector

Root command execution via unvalidated hostname

Published Nov 7, 2022 · Updated May 1, 2025

OS command injection in Object First Ootbi BETA build 1.0.7.712 allows remote authenticated users to execute Bash code as root. The management protocol's hostname-setting command passes an unvalidated hostname parameter directly to the Bash interpreter. Valid management credentials are required; successful injection grants complete root-level command execution on the appliance.
