CVE-2016-15047 is an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability in AVTECH devices that expose the CloudSetup.cgi management endpoint. The flaw is in the handling of the exefile parameter, which is passed to underlying system command execution without proper validation or whitelisting. An authenticated attacker able to invoke CloudSetup.cgi can supply crafted input via exefile to execute arbitrary operating system commands as root on the device. The archived SEARCH-LAB disclosure indicates the issue was likely remediated in early 2017, but AVTECH has not published a defined affected version range.
