Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')

MCP Watch is a comprehensive security scanner for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. In 0.1.2 and earlier, the MCPScanner class contains a critical Command Injection vulnerability in the cloneRepo method. The application passes the user-supplied githubUrl argument directly to a system shell via execSync without sanitization. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the host machine by appending shell metacharacters to the URL.Show less

By providing a command-line argument starting with a semi-colon ; to an API endpoint created by the EnhancedCommandExecutor class of the HexStrike AI MCP server, the resultant composed command is executed directly in the context of the MCP server’s normal privilege; typically, this is root. There is no attempt to sanitize these arguments in the default configuration of this MCP server at the affected version (as of commit 2f3a5512 in September of 2025).Show less

Firmware in SDMC NE6037 routers prior to version 7.1.12.2.44 has a network diagnostics tool vulnerable to a shell command injection attacks. In order to exploit this vulnerability, an attacker has to log in to the router's administrative portal, which by default is reachable only via LAN ports.Show less

TRENDnet TEW-657BRM 1.00.1 has an authenticated remote OS command injection vulnerability in the setup.cgi binary, exploitable via the HTTP parameters "command", "todo", and "next_file," which allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges.Show less

An OS command injection vulnerability exists due to incomplete validation of user-supplied input. Validation fails to enforce sufficient formatting rules, which could permit attackers to append arbitrary data. This could allow an unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary commands.Show less

An OS command injection vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input. The application accepts parameters that are later incorporated into OS commands without adequate validation. This could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands remotely.Show less

An OS command injection vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. The application accepts a parameter directly from user input without verifying it is a valid IP address or filtering potentially malicious characters. This could allow an unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary commands.Show less

Improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command ('command injection') in Cursor allows an unauthorized attacker to execute commands that are outside of those specified in the allowlist, resulting in arbitrary code execution.Show less

Unauthenticated OS Command Injection (restore_settings.php) in DB Electronica Telecomunicazioni S.p.A. Mozart FM Transmitter versions 30, 50, 100, 300, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 3500, 6000, 7000 allows an attacker to perform URL-decoded name parameter passed to exec() allows remote code execution. The `/var/tdf/restore_settings.php` endpoint passes user-controlled `$_GET["name"]` parameter through `urldecode()` directly into `exec()` without validation or escaping. Attackers can inject arbitrary shell commands using metacharacters (`;`, `|`, `&&`, etc.) to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution as the web server user.Show less

Unauthenticated OS Command Injection (start_upgrade.php) in DB Electronica Telecomunicazioni S.p.A. Mozart FM Transmitter versions 30, 50, 100, 300, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 3500, 6000, 7000 allows an attacker to perform User input passed directly to exec() allows remote code execution via start_upgrade.php. The `/var/tdf/start_upgrade.php` endpoint passes user-controlled `$_GET["filename"]` directly into `exec()` without sanitization or shell escaping. Attackers can inject arbitrary shell commands using metacharacters (`;`, `|`, etc.) to achieve remote code execution as the web server user (likely root).Show less

A command injection vulnerability has been identified in bwdpi. A remote, authenticated attacker could leverage this vulnerability to potentially execute arbitrary commands, leading to the device executing unintended instructions. Refer to the 'Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.Show less

An authentication-bypass vulnerability exists in AiCloud. This vulnerability can be triggered by an unintended side effect of the Samba functionality, potentially leading to allow execution of specific functions without proper authorization. Refer to the Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.Show less

A Looker user with a Developer role could cause Looker to execute a malicious command, due to insecure processing of Teradata driver parameters. Looker-hosted and Self-hosted were found to be vulnerable. This issue has already been mitigated for Looker-hosted instances. No user action is required for these. Self-hosted instances must be upgraded as soon as possible. This vulnerability has been patched in all supported versions of Self-hosted. The versions below have all been updated to protect from this vulnerability. You can download these versions at the Looker download page https://download.looker.com/ : * 24.12.108+ * 24.18.200+ * 25.0.78+ * 25.6.65+ * 25.8.47+ * 25.12.10+ * 25.14+Show less

Shenzhen TVT Digital Technology Co., Ltd. NVMS-9000 firmware (used by many white-labeled DVR/NVR/IPC products) contains hardcoded API credentials and an OS command injection flaw in its configuration services. The web/API interface accepts HTTP/XML requests authenticated with a fixed vendor credential string and passes user-controlled fields into shell execution contexts without proper argument sanitization. An unauthenticated remote attacker can leverage the hard-coded credential to access endpoints such as /editBlackAndWhiteList and inject shell metacharacters inside XML parameters, resulting in arbitrary command execution as root. The same vulnerable backend is also reachable in some models through a proprietary TCP service on port 4567 that accepts a magic GUID preface and base64-encoded XML, enabling the same command injection sink. Firmware releases from mid-February 2018 and later are reported to have addressed this issue. Exploitation evidence was observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2025-01-28 UTC.Show less

Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. Prior to version 2.0.31, due to an error in sed command parsing, it was possible to bypass the Claude Code read-only validation and write to arbitrary files on the host system. This issue has been patched in version 2.0.31.Show less

A vulnerability exists in the Opto22 Groov Manage REST API on GRV-EPIC and groov RIO Products that allows remote code execution with root privileges. When a POST request is executed against the vulnerable endpoint, the application reads certain header details and unsafely uses these values to build commands, allowing an attacker with administrative privileges to inject arbitrary commands that execute as root.Show less

Lite XL versions 2.1.8 and prior contain a vulnerability in the system.exec function, which allowed arbitrary command execution through unsanitized shell command construction. This function was used in project directory launching (core.lua), drag-and-drop file handling (rootview.lua), and the “open in system” command in the treeview plugin (treeview.lua). If an attacker could influence input to system.exec, they might execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the Lite XL process.Show less

An issue in Ilevia EVE X1 Server Firmware Version v4.7.18.0.eden and before Logic Version v6.00 - 2025_07_21 and before allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the ping.php component does not perform secure filtering on IP parametersShow less

D-Link Router DIR-868L A1 FW106KRb01.bin has an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the cgibin binary. The HNAP service provided by cgibin does not filter the HTTP SOAPAction header field. The unauthenticated remote attacker can execute the shell command.Show less
