AI-suggested
Organizations should immediately audit user permissions to ensure that only trusted personnel have Report Viewer or Report Manager roles. Implement strict access controls and monitor usage of the /reporting/templates/preview/ endpoint for anomalous activity. Since no official patches are currently available, consider applying temporary mitigations such as disabling the vulnerable reporting feature or restricting access to the endpoint via network controls or web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious template injection patterns. Review and sanitize all user inputs related to template rendering, and if possible, upgrade to a newer version of Amidaware Tactical RMM once a patch is released. Employ runtime application self-protection (RASP) tools to detect and prevent exploitation attempts. Regularly monitor vendor advisories for updates and apply security best practices for Jinja2 template handling in custom integrations.
Description
A Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability in the /reporting/templates/preview/ endpoint of Amidaware Tactical RMM, affecting versions equal to or earlier than v1.3.1, allows low-privileged users with Report Viewer or Report Manager permissions to achieve remote command execution on the server. This occurs due to improper sanitization of the template_md parameter, enabling direct injection of Jinja2 templates. This occurs due to misuse of the generate_html() function, the user-controlled value is inserted into `env.from_string`, a function that processes Jinja2 templates arbitrarily, making an SSTI possible.
