Description
Anritsu ShockLine CHX File Parsing Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Anritsu ShockLine. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CHX files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current user. Was ZDI-CAN-26913.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a remote code execution flaw in Anritsu ShockLine related to how it parses CHX files. It occurs because the software does not properly validate user-supplied file paths before using them in file operations, leading to a directory traversal issue. An attacker can exploit this by tricking a user into visiting a malicious webpage or opening a malicious file, which then allows the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the same privileges as the current user. [1]

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on your system with the privileges of the current user. This can lead to unauthorized access, data theft, system compromise, or disruption of services, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your system. [1]
