What to do

AI-suggested

Organizations should immediately audit and harden the SFTP server configuration within Infinera TNMS to ensure strict chroot or equivalent directory restrictions are enforced, preventing users from escaping their home directories. Implement access controls limiting SFTP usage to only necessary accounts with minimal privileges. Monitor SFTP logs for unusual access patterns or attempts to access unauthorized directories. Network segmentation should isolate management systems to reduce exposure. Employ multi-factor authentication and strong credential management for accounts with high privileges. Until an official patch is released, consider disabling the internal SFTP server if feasible or replacing it with a securely configured external SFTP solution. Regularly update and patch TNMS software once vendor fixes become available. Conduct penetration testing focused on directory traversal and privilege escalation scenarios within the management environment.

Description

In Infinera TNMS (Transcend Network Management System) 19.10.3, an insecure default configuration of the internal SFTP server on Linux servers allows remote attacker to access files and directories outside the SFTP user home directory.
