luci-app-tailscale-community - Command Injection via tailscale.do_login RPC
Description

luci-app-tailscale-community contains a command injection vulnerability in the tailscale.do_login RPC method that allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands as root. The vulnerability exists because user-controlled loginserver and loginserver_authkey parameters are improperly quoted within a double-quoted shell command, allowing shell substitutions like $() to be evaluated by the outer shell before argument processing.

Score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Score Impact Score Source
CVSS 3.1 HIGH 83251b91-4cc7-4094-a5c7-464a1b83ea10
CVSS 4.0 HIGH 83251b91-4cc7-4094-a5c7-464a1b83ea10
Solution
Address command injection by validating and sanitizing user inputs in the RPC method.
  • Sanitize user-supplied loginserver parameters.
  • Sanitize user-supplied loginserver_authkey parameters.
  • Avoid executing user input directly in shell commands.
  • Update to a patched version of luci-app-tailscale-community.
