Descriptions

NVIDIA Mellanox OS, ONYX, Skyway, and MetroX-3 XCC contain a vulnerability in the web support, where an attacker can cause a CGI path traversal by a specially crafted URI. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to escalation of privileges and information disclosure.

This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of NVIDIA Onyx switches. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the /admin/launch endpoint. When parsing the script query parameter, the process does not properly validate a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the device.
