CVE-2023-36255: Eramba path parameter code injection allows remote code execution
Eramba · Eramba
Eramba Enterprise and Community edition v3.19.1 is affected by a code injection flaw (CWE-94) reachable through the path parameter in the URL. A remote attacker with low privileges can execute arbitrary code on the server, which matters because it can lead to full compromise of the application host.
Description
An issue in Eramba Limited Eramba Enterprise and Community edition v.3.19.1 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the path parameter in the URL.
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Automated analysis
high priorityCVSS 8.8 with high EPSS and a public exploit reference make this a serious remote code execution risk, though it requires low privileges and no KEV listing is present.
What it is
Eramba Enterprise and Community edition v3.19.1 is affected by a code injection flaw (CWE-94) reachable through the path parameter in the URL. A remote attacker with low privileges can execute arbitrary code on the server, which matters because it can lead to full compromise of the application host.
Impact
An attacker gains arbitrary code execution on the Eramba server, with high impact to confidentiality, integrity and availability. This can result in data theft, tampering, or full host takeover.
Attack surface
The flaw is reached over the network via the path parameter in the URL, requiring low privileges (authenticated user) and no user interaction. No other preconditions are described in the record.
Exploitation
No CISA KEV listing and no ransomware association are recorded; EPSS is high at 0.53062 (98.9th percentile), and a third-party advisory is tagged as Exploit, indicating public exploit information exists.
What to do
- Upgrade Eramba Enterprise and Community edition to a version later than 3.19.1; the record does not list fixed versions, so confirm with the vendor.
- Restrict network access to the Eramba web interface to trusted users and networks.
- Review and minimize accounts with low-privilege access that could reach the vulnerable path parameter.
- Monitor vendor advisories and the referenced Trovent advisory for updated guidance.
Detection
- Inspect web server and application logs for requests with suspicious or malformed path parameters targeting Eramba endpoints.
- Alert on unexpected child processes or command execution spawned by the Eramba web service.
- Monitor for outbound connections or file writes from the Eramba server that deviate from normal behavior.
This assessment is produced automatically and is not human-reviewed. Verify against the vendor advisory before acting on it.
