CVE-2024-4502Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unsanitized ifName

Published May 5, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

OS command injection in Ruijie Networks RG-UAC 20240428 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands via a crafted ifName value. The dhcp_client_commit.php endpoint incorporates the ifName request value into an operating-system command without neutralizing command syntax. Administrative access to the management interface is required, and injected commands execute in the endpoint's appliance-side context.
