CVE-2020-7351: Fonality Trixbox CE Post-Authentication Command Injection
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 55/100)
- A ready-made attack module is public (Metasploit); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 65.2% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.2% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- No fixed version is recorded, but the references include a patch (commit or PR) link.
Add it to your regular patch cycle. See the fix and affected versions sections below.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
An OS Command Injection vulnerability in the endpoint_devicemap.php component of Fonality Trixbox Community Edition allows an attacker to execute commands on the underlying operating system as the "asterisk" user. Note that Trixbox Community Edition has been unsupported by the vendor since 2012. This issue affects: Fonality Trixbox Community Edition, versions 1.2.0 through 2.8.0.4. Versions 1.0 and 1.1 are unaffected.
