info:
  name: rConfig <= 3.9.4 - Authenticated OS Command Injection
  author: Securin
  severity: high
  description: |
    lib/ajaxHandlers/ajaxAddTemplate.php in rConfig through 3.9.4 does not properly sanitize the fileName POST parameter before using it in a shell command, allowing an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary OS commands. This template uses default admin credentials to log in before triggering the injection; override the username / userpassword fields for environments with changed credentials.
  impact: |
    Remote attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands, potentially leading to full system compromise.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade rConfig beyond 3.9.4 once a fixed release is available, or restrict access to /lib/ajaxHandlers/ and change default credentials.
