Description
Alpine iLX-507 UPDM_wstpCBCUpdStart Command Injection Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows physically present attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Alpine iLX-507 devices. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the UPDM_wstpCBCUpdStart function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-26317.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is a command injection flaw in the Alpine iLX-507 device, specifically in the UPDM_wstpCBCUpdStart function. It allows an attacker who has physical access to the device to execute arbitrary code with root privileges without needing to authenticate. The issue arises because the device does not properly validate user-supplied data before using it in a system call, enabling code execution.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

An attacker with physical access to an affected Alpine iLX-507 device can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code as root. This can lead to full compromise of the device, including unauthorized control, data manipulation, or disruption of device functionality.
