9.9/10

Summary

JumpServer is an open source bastion host. An authenticated user can exploit a vulnerability in MongoDB sessions to execute arbitrary commands, leading to remote code execution. This vulnerability may further be leveraged to gain root privileges on the system. Through the WEB CLI interface provided by the Koko component, a user logs into the authorized mongoDB database and exploits the MongoDB session to execute arbitrary commands. This issue affects versions 2.0.0 through 2.28.19, 3.0.0 through 3.5.6, 3.6.0 through 3.6.5, and 3.7.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

CWE-94 - Code Injection

Code injection is a type of vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability fully compromises the machine and can cause a wide variety of security issues, such as unauthorized access to sensitive information, manipulation of data, denial of service attacks etc. Code injection is different from command injection in the fact that it is limited by the functionality of the injected language (e.g. PHP), as opposed to command injection, which leverages existing code to execute commands, usually within the context of a shell.
