A vulnerability has been identified that allows an authenticated administrator to execute arbitrary code on the host server. By adding an alert transport entry, an attacker with administrative privileges can execute malicious commands.
The vulnerability is caused by an unsafe exec call in deliverAlert function of LibreNMS/Alert/Transport/Signal.php. Escapes for the path of signal-cli and the Recipient field are insufficient to prevent command-line injection.
The composer_wrapper.php under scripts is also vulnerable to command injection (unsafe exec calls) by passing the injected command as an argument, and it is accepting arguments passed by deliverAlert.
By chaining these unsafe exec calls, malicious admin user can execute any executables in the server's filesystem.
Signal as Transport type.
b. Put ../scripts/composer_wrapper.php into Path.
c. Put the command to execute under Recipient with ; at the start and the end of string.Save Transport, and after the popup closed, click Test Transport button under Action of the created Alert Transport entry.This vulnerability allows a malicious actor to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE), potentially leading to complete system compromise, data exfiltration, or lateral movement within the network.
Escape user inputs, and avoid passing them directly into exec function. (scripts/composer_wrapper.php)
Avoid setting executable paths directly in web interface. Instead, use a config value, and only allow setting executable paths by command line interface. ()
