Description
PLANET GS-4210-16P2S V3 firmware before 3.441b260626 contains an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability in /cgi-bin/httpuploadcert.cgi. The certificate password field in a certificate upload request is incorporated into a shell command without sanitization of shell metacharacters. A remote attacker with administrator web credentials can submit a crafted certificate upload request to execute arbitrary operating-system commands on the device.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability resides in the httpuploadcert.cgi script of the PLANET GS‑4210‑16P2S firmware before 3.441b260626. The script incorporates the certificate password field from a certificate upload request directly into a shell command without sanitizing shell metacharacters. An attacker who has administrator web credentials can send a crafted upload request that causes the device to execute arbitrary operating‑system commands. The weakness is a classic OS command injection (CWE‑78).

Affected Systems

PLANET Technology Corp.’s GS‑4210‑16P2S network device. Firmware versions prior to 3.441b260626 are affected; the issue originates in the web interface component of that firmware.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.6 indicates a high severity vulnerability. The EPSS score is 0.00765, indicating a very low probability of exploitation, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no publicly known exploits at this time. Nonetheless, the attack requires administrative web credentials, but once obtained the attacker can submit a crafted upload request from any remote location to execute arbitrary OS commands. The lack of input sanitization provides a straightforward exploitation path for authenticated privileged users.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the device firmware to version 3.441b260626 or later, which addresses the command injection issue.
  • If firmware upgrade is not feasible, restrict access to the httpuploadcert.cgi endpoint by blocking the URL via firewall rules or disabling remote web administration, and enforce strict access controls on administrator credentials.
  • Monitor device logs for unexpected certificate upload attempts or shell command anomalies, and alert on such events.
  • Consider implementing network segmentation or VPN-only access for device administration to reduce exposure.
