CVE-2023-34214Network attack vector

Authenticated command execution via certificate-generation input

Published Aug 17, 2023 · Updated Oct 28, 2024

OS command injection in Moxa TN-4900, TN-5900, EDR-810, EDR-G902, and EDR-G903 firmware allows remote authenticated users to run commands. The certificate-generation function insufficiently validates attacker-controlled input before incorporating it into an operating-system command. Administrative web-interface privileges are required; successful exploitation executes arbitrary commands on the appliance, enabling data access, configuration changes, and service interruption.
