EMC VMAX VASA Provider Virtual Appliance < 8.4.0 File Upload RCE

critical Nessus Plugin ID 102036

Language:

Synopsis

The remote virtual appliance is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of EMC VMAX VASA Provider Virtual Appliance running on the remote host is prior to 8.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability in the UploadConfigurator servlet due to a failure to restrict file uploads to arbitrary directories. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue to upload files containing arbitrary code and then execute them with root privileges.

Solution

Upgrade to EMC VMAX VASA Provider Virtual Appliance version 8.4.0 or later.
