CVE-2024-29224Network attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via unsanitized NAT fields

Published Nov 21, 2024 · Updated Nov 21, 2024

OS command injection in GoCast 1.1.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands through an unauthenticated crafted HTTP request. The system.go natRule function splits the untrusted NAT value into protocol and port fields, interpolates them into an iptables command string, and executes the result without validation. The HTTP API is enabled in the default configuration without authentication, so network access to port 8080 grants command execution with the GoCast process's privileges.
