{"id":"CVE-2020-12078","details":"An issue was discovered in Open-AudIT 3.3.1. There is shell metacharacter injection via attributes to an open-audit/configuration/ URI. An attacker can exploit this by adding an excluded IP address to the global discovery settings (internally called exclude_ip). This exclude_ip value is passed to the exec function in the discoveries_helper.php file (inside the all_ip_list function) without being filtered, which means that the attacker can provide a payload instead of a valid IP address.","modified":"2026-04-10T04:21:57.305734Z","published":"2020-04-28T14:15:14.203Z","references":[{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/Opmantek/open-audit/commit/6ffc7f9032c55eaa1c37cf5e070809b7211c7e9a"},{"type":"EVIDENCE","url":"http://packetstormsecurity.com/files/157477/Open-AudIT-Professional-3.3.1-Remote-Code-Execution.html"},{"type":"EVIDENCE","url":"https://gist.github.com/mhaskar/dca62d0f0facc13f6364b8ed88d5a7fd"},{"type":"EVIDENCE","url":"https://shells.systems/open-audit-v3-3-1-remote-command-execution-cve-2020-12078/"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/opmantek/open-audit","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"e30ca22e1f0b7e261e131fc95d7883bf5afd1816"},{"fixed":"6ffc7f9032c55eaa1c37cf5e070809b7211c7e9a"}],"database_specific":{"versions":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"3.3.1"}]}}],"versions":["Open-AudIT_1.12","Open-AudIT_1.12.2","Open-AudIT_1.12.2_1","Open-AudIT_1.12.4","Open-AudIT_1.12.8","Open-AudIT_1.12.8.1","Open-AudIT_1.12.8.2","Open-AudIT_1.8.2","Open-AudIT_2.0.1","Open-AudIT_2.0.1-1","Open-AudIT_2.0.1-2","Open-AudIT_2.0.10","Open-AudIT_2.0.11","Open-AudIT_2.0.2-1","Open-AudIT_2.0.6","Open-AudIT_2.0.6_beta","Open-AudIT_2.0.8","Open-AudIT_2.1","Open-AudIT_2.2.1","Open-AudIT_2.2.2","Open-AudIT_2.2.3","Open-AudIT_2.2.4","Open-AudIT_2.2.5","Open-AudIT_2.2.6","Open-AudIT_2.2.7","Open-AudIT_2.3.1","Open-AudIT_2.3.2","Open-AudIT_3.0.0","Open-AudIT_3.0.0_windows","Open-AudIT_3.1.0","Open-AudIT_3.2.0","Open-AudIT_3.2.1","Open-AudIT_3.2.2","Open-AudIT_3.3.0","Open-AudIT_3.3.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2020-12078.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
