Authenticated arbitrary command execution

Published Feb 9, 2024 · Updated Jun 17, 2025

Command injection in Emerson Rosemount GC370XA, GC700XA, and GC1500XA through 4.1.5 allows remote authenticated users to run commands. Published advisories do not identify the affected protocol command, input field, or shell invocation that fails to neutralize untrusted data. Exploitation requires access to the device management network and can modify limited device state or interrupt gas-analysis operation; no confidentiality impact is reported.
