CVE-2023-50094: reNgine 2.2.0 - Command Injection

id: CVE-2023-50094

info:
  name: reNgine 2.2.0 - Command Injection
  author: Zierax
  severity: high
  description: |
    reNgine before 2.1.2 allows OS Command Injection if an adversary has a valid session ID. The attack places shell metacharacters in an api/tools/waf_detector/?url= string. The commands are executed as root via subprocess.check_output.
  impact: |
    Authenticated attackers can inject arbitrary OS commands that execute as root, leading to complete system compromise and data exfiltration.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade reNgine to version 2.1.2 or later which includes proper input validation.
