CVE-2018-21268

Estado: ModificadaCrítica (9.8)—💥 PoC

El paquete traceroute (también se conoce como node-traceroute) versiones hasta 1.0.0 para Node.js, permite una inyección de comandos remota por medio del parámetro host. Esto ocurre porque es usado el método Child.exec(), que es considerado no del todo seguro. En particular, un comando del Sistema Operativo puede ser colocado después de un carácter newline

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

💥 Exploits públicos

Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.

⚠️ Las pruebas de concepto de GitHub no están verificadas: algunas son falsas o contienen malware. No las ejecute nunca fuera de un laboratorio aislado.
