AI-suggested

1. Apply vendor patches immediately once released to address the command injection flaw. 2. Until patches are available, restrict access to the fax test interface to trusted administrators only, using network segmentation and firewall rules. 3. Implement strong authentication mechanisms and monitor authentication logs for suspicious activity. 4. Harden file system permissions on the temporary run directory to prevent unauthorized modification of batch files by local users. 5. Employ application-layer input validation and sanitization to ensure parameters passed to command lines do not contain shell metacharacters. 6. Use host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS) to monitor for unusual command executions or file modifications in the appliance environment. 7. Regularly audit and review appliance configurations and access controls. 8. Consider isolating the fax/IVR appliance in a dedicated VLAN or network segment to limit exposure. 9. Educate administrators about the risks of authenticated interfaces and the importance of credential security. 10. Maintain up-to-date backups and incident response plans to quickly recover from potential compromises.

Description

AudioCodes Fax Server and Auto-Attendant IVR appliances versions up to and including 2.6.23 are vulnerable to an authenticated command injection in the fax test functionality implemented by AudioCodes_files/TestFax.php. When a fax "send" test is requested, the application builds a faxsender command line using attacker-supplied parameters and passes it to GlobalUtils::RunBatchFile without proper validation or shell-argument sanitization. The resulting batch file is written into a temporary run directory and then executed via a backend service that runs as NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM. An authenticated attacker with access to the fax test interface can craft parameter values that inject additional shell commands into the generated batch file, leading to arbitrary command execution with SYSTEM privileges. In addition, because the generated batch files reside in a location with overly permissive file system permissions, a local low-privilege user on the server can modify pending batch files to achieve the same elevation.
