WolfProt interface lets unauthenticated attackers run OS commands
Attackers on the network can send specially crafted input to a WolfProt service without logging in and make the server run commands of their choosing. This can give them control over the machine running the service.

How the attack works simplified
- 1Unauthenticated attackerNo login or credentials needed
- 2Reaches WolfProt serviceService accessible over the network
- 3Malicious input sentInput is not properly sanitized
- 4OS command executedRuns with the service's privileges
- ResultAttacker controls the server
What happened
A command injection flaw (CWE-78 class: user-controlled input not neutralized) exists in the WolfProt interface implementation, letting unauthenticated network attackers execute OS commands with the privileges of the affected application service.
Are you affected?
You are affected if you run a WolfProt interface implementation exposed to the network in a version the advisories list as vulnerable.
WolfProt interface implementation (exact versions not stated in the provided material)
What to do
- Check whether your systems run the WolfProt interface and which version it is
- Restrict network access to the WolfProt service so only trusted hosts can reach it
- Watch the official GitHub advisory GHSA-rwp5-547m-r274 for a patched version and update as soon as one is published
