VAR-201702-1034
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-20 23:20The SonicWall Secure Remote Access server (version 8.1.0.2-14sv) is vulnerable to a Remote Command Injection vulnerability in its web administrative interface. This vulnerability occurs in the 'viewcert' CGI (/cgi-bin/viewcert) component responsible for processing SSL certificate information. The CGI application doesn't properly escape the information it's passed in the 'CERT' variable before a call to system() is performed - allowing for remote command injection. Exploitation of this vulnerability yields shell access to the remote machine under the nobody user account. DellSonicWallSecureRemoteAccess is a SonicWALL Secure Remote Access Series appliance in the DellSonicWall Secure Mobile Access Solution. Dell SonicWall Secure Remote Access is prone to multiple command-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands in context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition
