Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a PowerShell injection flaw in Zohocorp ManageEngine DDI Central versions below 6301. It occurs due to insufficient validation of user-supplied TXT record values during Windows DNS operations. An attacker with DNS zone management permissions can exploit this to execute arbitrary commands on the managed Windows DNS server by injecting malicious input into PowerShell commands.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check the version of ManageEngine DDI Central. If it is below build 6301, the system is vulnerable. Review DNS zone configurations for suspicious TXT records that may contain PowerShell commands or unusual values.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows authenticated users with DNS zone management permissions to execute arbitrary commands on the Windows DNS server. This could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or disruption of DNS services, potentially affecting the entire network infrastructure.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could potentially lead to unauthorized command execution on Windows DNS servers, which may result in data breaches or unauthorized access to sensitive information. For GDPR, this could impact data confidentiality and integrity, while for HIPAA, it might compromise protected health information if exploited.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade ManageEngine DDI Central to build 6301 or later immediately. Ensure input validation is enforced for TXT record values in DNS zone management. Restrict DNS zone management permissions to trusted users only.
