Summary

Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and from 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1 are affected. The maintenance command-line diagnostic utilities fail to sanitize user-supplied input options passed to a shell, an OS command injection flaw (CWE-78). A privileged user with maintenance account access can supply crafted parameters to run arbitrary OS commands with root privileges.

Description from the CNA

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in maintenance command-line diagnostic utilities on Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. The binary fails to sanitize user-supplied input options when invoking underlying system commands through a shell interpreter. A privileged user with maintenance account access can exploit this issue by supplying crafted parameters, which results in arbitrary OS command execution with root privileges.
