Arbitrary command execution via unvalidated dot path
Published Feb 27, 2026 · Updated Feb 27, 2026
OS command injection in openDCIM 23.04 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute commands through the network map report. report_network_map.php reads the fac_Config.dot executable path from the database and passes it to exec() without validation or sanitization. Exploitation requires control of that configuration value; a public chain obtains it through separate authorization and SQL injection flaws, then runs commands as the web server process.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
