CVE-2023-37292Network attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via unfiltered interface parameters

Published Jul 21, 2023 · Updated Oct 24, 2024

OS command injection in HGiga iSherlock 4.5 and 5.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via its personalization interface. The interface fails to filter special characters in system-page parameters before passing them to operating-system commands. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation permits arbitrary system operations or service interruption.
