🚨 Critical Security Vulnerability
🆔 CVE-2024-13871, CVE-2024-13872
💣 CVSS Score: 9.4, 9.4
📅 Published Date: 2025-03-12
⚠️ Details: A command injection vulnerability exists in the /check_image_and_trigger_recovery API endpoint of Bitdefender Box 1 (firmware version 1.3.11.490). This flaw allows an unauthenticated, network-adjacent attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the device, potentially leading to full remote code execution (RCE).
Bitdefender Box, versions 1.3.11.490 through 1.3.11.505, uses the insecure HTTP protocol to download assets over the Internet to update and restart daemons and detection rules on the devices. Updates can be remotely triggered through the /set_temp_token API method. Then, an unauthenticated and network-adjacent attacker can use man-in-the-middle (MITM) techniques to return malicious responses. Restarted daemons that use malicious assets can then be exploited for remote code execution on the device.
