Authenticated (user role) arbitrary command execution by modifying `start_cmd` setting (GHSL-2023-268)

Published Jan 11, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Vendor: 0xJacky Product: nginx-ui Package: github.com/0xJacky/Nginx-UI Ecosystem: Go

Description

Nginx-UI is a web interface to manage Nginx configurations. It is vulnerable to arbitrary command execution by abusing the configuration settings. The `Home > Preference` page exposes a list of system settings such as `Run Mode`, `Jwt Secret`, `Node Secret` and `Terminal Start Command`. While the UI doesn't allow users to modify the `Terminal Start Command` setting, it is possible to do so by sending a request to the API. This issue may lead to authenticated remote code execution, privilege escalation, and information disclosure. This vulnerability has been patched in version 2.0.0.beta.9.
