Descriptions

The Crestron Console service running on DGE-100, DM-DGE-200-C, and TS-1542-C devices with default configuration and running firmware versions 1.3384.00049.001 and lower are vulnerable to command injection that can be used to gain root-level access.

El servicio Crestron Console en los dispositivos DGE-100, DM-DGE-200-C y TS-1542-C con la configuración por defecto y ejecutando versiones del firmware 1.3384.00049.001 y anteriores es vulnerable a una inyección de comandos que puede emplearse para obtener acceso a nivel root.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Crestron's Android-based products. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the PING command of the CTP console. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute code with root privileges.
