Descriptions

Improper Input Validation in Eaton's Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) v 1.67 & prior on file name during configuration file import functionality allows attackers to perform command injection or code execution via specially crafted file names while uploading the configuration file in the application.

La Comprobación de Entrada Inapropiada en Eaton Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) versiones v1.67 y anteriores, en el nombre del archivo durante la funcionalidad de importación del archivo de configuración permite a atacantes realizar la inyección de comandos o la ejecución del código por medio de nombres de archivo especialmente diseñados mientras se carga el archivo de configuración en la aplicación.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Eaton Intelligent Power Manager. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within system_srv.js. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root on Linux or SYSTEM on Windows.

*Credits: Eaton would like to thank Sivathmican Sivakumaran for working with Eaton and helping Eaton in releasing more robust and secure products.
