Description
Termix is a web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities. The `POST /ssh/tunnel/connect` endpoint in Termix prior to version 2.3.2 builds an SSH tunnel command by interpolating user-controlled host record fields (`endpointIP`, `endpointUsername`, `password`) directly into a shell command without escaping, allowing persistent OS command injection on the source SSH host. Version 2.3.2 patches the issue.

Impact

Termix is a web‑based server management platform that provides SSH terminal and tunneling features. A flaw in the POST /ssh/tunnel/connect endpoint allows a user to inject arbitrary content into host record fields which are directly placed into a shell command. This enables a remote attacker to execute any OS command on the host that Termix connects to via SSH, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of that host.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Termix version 2.3.1 and earlier. Termix versions prior to 2.3.2 are vulnerable. The attack escalates from the web application to the underlying SSH host.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.8 demonstrates a high severity, and the EPSS score is unavailable. The vulnerability has not been listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is through the web interface’s tunnel creation endpoint, permitting persistent command injection on the source SSH host.
