Privilege escalation via exposed SDK testing console
Published Aug 26, 2025 · Updated Sep 5, 2025
Privilege escalation in RACOM M!DGE2 4.0 through 4.6.40.106 allows remote authenticated users to obtain a root-group shell. The /admin/sdkTesting.php console executes SDK code supplied by a non-primary web administrator, exposing configuration operations that reveal the master administrator password and enable shell access. The user must already hold web-interface administrator rights, but configured shell and PHP CLI restrictions do not contain the resulting access.
