Unauthenticated RCE via WSDL-controlled file write
Published Dec 10, 2025 · Updated Dec 10, 2025
Absolute path traversal in Barracuda RMM before 2025.1.1 allows remote attackers to execute code through a malicious WSDL. The unauthenticated InvokeRemoteMethod SOAP method imports an attacker-hosted WSDL, and the generated proxy accepts a file URL as its service address and writes the SOAP body to that path. Network access to a self-hosted Service Center is sufficient to place an ASPX webshell under SCMessaging and run commands as the web application.
