Kiloview E3 NDI encoder lets logged-in users run commands as root

A logged-in user of the device's web page can slip extra commands into the device name field. The device then runs those commands with full control, so an attacker could take over the encoder.

How the attack works simplified

  1. 1Logged-in userHas web access to the device
  2. 2Device name fieldHostname input is not sanitized
  3. 3Shell command runsInput is passed unquoted to the shell
  4. 4Injected commandsExtra commands execute as root
  5. ResultAttacker gains root on the encoder

What happened

The system control service on Kiloview E3 NDI encoder firmware passes the hostname parameter of its device naming endpoint unquoted into a shell command, enabling OS command injection.

Why it is dangerous: An attacker with web access to the device can run arbitrary commands as root, fully compromising the encoder and anything it connects to on the network.

Are you affected?

You are affected if you run Kiloview E3 NDI encoder firmware with the web interface reachable by users who can log in.

Kiloview E3 NDI encoder firmware (versions not stated in the provided material).

What to do

  1. Restrict access to the device's web interface to trusted networks only
  2. Limit web login accounts on the device to people who truly need them
  3. Check the Kiloview website or GitHub advisory for a firmware update and install it when available
