AI-suggested
Users should consider upgrading to a supported product version or alternative solution. Until then, restricting access to the vulnerable API endpoints and limiting authentication to trusted users may reduce risk. Monitor vendor communications for any possible mitigations or workarounds.
Description
XWEB EVO versions 5.6.2 through 5.8.8 contain an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability in the api.lua import_preconfiguration and restore actions. The vulnerability arises because server_url and related credential fields are concatenated without escaping into a root-level curl command executed via io.popen. This allows attackers with authentication to inject arbitrary shell commands and execute them with root privileges. The product line reached its end of service in March 2026.
