Summary

Brocade Fabric OS before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1 contains an OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) in its account management subsystem. Malformed account names that Fabric OS previously accepted can cause shell metacharacters to execute during the internal key cleanup that runs when an administrator deletes the account. An attacker with high privileges on an adjacent network can trigger the command injection.

Description from the CNA

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the account management subsystem of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. When an administrator initiates an account deletion, the system invokes an internal maintenance routine to clean up cryptographic keys associated with the target account. Malformed account names previously accepted by Fabric OS can cause the execution of embedded shell metacharacters, triggering command injection.
