CVE-2025-50989
OPNsense before 25.1.8 contains an authenticated command injection vulnerability in its Bridge Interface Edit endpoint (interfaces_bridge_edit.php). The span POST parameter is concatenated into a system-level command without proper sanitization or escaping, allowing an administrator to inject arbitrary shell operators and payloads. Successful exploitation results in remote code execution with the privileges of the web service (typically root), potentially leading to full system compromise or lateral movement. This vulnerability arises from inadequate input validation and improper handling of user-supplied data in backend command invocations.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.1

El parámetro POST span se concatena en un comando a nivel de sistema sin la debida depuración ni escape, lo que permite a un administrador inyectar operadores de shell y payloads arbitrarias. Una explotación exitosa otorga a RCE los privilegios del servicio web (normalmente root), lo que podría provocar la vulneración total del sistema o un desplazamiento lateral. Esta vulnerabilidad surge de una validación de entrada inadecuada y del manejo incorrecto de los datos proporcionados por el usuario en las invocaciones de comandos del backend."
