Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 29/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.60% (FIRST EPSS).
- 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.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In Kura versions <= 5.6.2, `CommandCloudApp.execute()` extracts a caller-supplied ZIP archive into a caller-supplied directory inside the Kura JVM process before dispatching the command to the executor service. On a packaged Kura installation the JVM runs as `kurad` with `CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE`, while the configurable "Unprivileged" executor drops to the `kura` user via `su`. A caller with permissions `rest.command` who is intentionally restricted to unprivileged command execution (`privileged.command.service.enable=false`, the default) can therefore set `workingDirectory` to `/` and use the ZIP body to write or overwrite arbitrary files on the device as `kurad`, completely bypassing the unprivileged sandbox the operator selected. The command service is disabled by default since Kura 4.0.0 [1]. The issue does not apply when the command service is disabled.
