CVE-2026-45744: CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') in Termix-SSH Termix
Termix is a web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities. Prior to version 2.3.2, the GET /ssh/file_manager/ssh/resolvePath endpoint in Termix is vulnerable to OS command injection. The endpoint uses double-quote escaping for shell command construction, which does not prevent $(...) and backtick command substitution. Any authenticated user with an active File Manager SSH session can execute arbitrary commands on the connected remote host. Version 2.3.2 patches the issue.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-45744 is an OS command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) in Termix, a web-based server management platform. The issue exists in the GET /ssh/file_manager/ssh/resolvePath endpoint, which uses double-quote escaping for shell command construction but fails to prevent command substitution via $(...) and backticks. Authenticated users with an active File Manager SSH session can exploit this to execute arbitrary commands on the remote host. The vulnerability affects all Termix versions prior to 2.3.2, which includes the vulnerable endpoint. Version 2.3.2 addresses this issue by patching the command injection flaw.
Potential Impact
An attacker with authenticated access and an active File Manager SSH session can execute arbitrary commands on the connected remote host, leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system. The CVSS score of 9.9 reflects critical impact with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required beyond authentication.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade Termix to version 2.3.2 or later, which contains the official fix for this OS command injection vulnerability. No other mitigations are specified. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the patch.
