Authenticated root code execution via unsanitized language parameter

Published Apr 8, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2025

OS command injection in all versions of Siemens SENTRON 7KT PAC1260 Data Manager allows remote authenticated users to execute code as root. The device web interface places an unsanitized language parameter from specific POST requests into an operating-system command context. High-privilege authenticated web access is required, and successful injection grants root-level control of the device operating system.
