What is CVE-2020-24054?

CVE-2020-24054 is a critical command injection vulnerability in n/a, published on 21 Aug 2020. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

The administration console of the Moog EXO Series EXVF5C-2 and EXVP7C2-3 units features a 'statusbroadcast' command that can spawn a given process repeatedly at a certain time interval as 'root'. One of the limitations of this feature is that it only takes a path to a binary without arguments; however, this can be circumvented using special shell variables, such as '${IFS}'. As a result, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands as 'root' on the units.
