Unauthenticated command execution via Ping ip parameter
Published Oct 3, 2023 · Updated Sep 20, 2024
OS command injection in the Ping check of DTS Monitoring 3.57.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands through the ip parameter. The ajax.php catch_check_data action passes an ip value containing pipe and command-substitution metacharacters to the Ping check and executes the injected command. No authentication or user interaction is required; commands run with the Monitoring service's privileges, limiting the resulting data access and service interruption to that process's permissions.
