NETGEAR ProSAFE Network Management System ZipUtils Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
NETGEAR · ProSAFE Network Management System
A directory traversal flaw in the ZipUtils class of NETGEAR's ProSAFE Network Management System lets a user-supplied path go unvalidated before it is used in file operations. An attacker with network access and high-privilege authentication (the existing authentication mechanism can reportedly be bypassed) can execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM, with no user interaction required.
NETGEAR ProSAFE Network Management System ZipUtils Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of NETGEAR ProSAFE Network Management System. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed. The specific flaw exists within the ZipUtils class. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-19716.
