An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) session cleanup routines during SSH session termination on Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. An authenticated user authenticating via an external directory or AAA service whose username or profile identifier contains shell metacharacters can trigger arbitrary command execution with root privileges when their remote SSH session closes.

Privilege Escalation via CLI Authorization Bypass in Brocade Fabric OS

A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the internal Command-Line Interface (CLI) authorization handling mechanism of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. An authenticated user or local process that can manipulate the process execution environment can bypass Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) validation checks. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to elevate privileges to root

Brocade Fabric OS Privilege Escalation via Authentication Logic Flaw

An authentication logic and privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the account management interface of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. Under specific conditions, an authenticated user can bypass authorization restrictions intended to prevent modifying another account's access privileges. Exploitation allows a lower-privileged user to assign administrative roles to a target account, leading to localized privilege escalation.

OS Command Injection in Fabric OS Account Management

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.

A session context forgery vulnerability exists in the web management daemon of Brocade Fabric OS versions 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. When processing local inter-process communication (IPC) storage callbacks, the service accepts and registers session structures including administrative role permissions, user identifiers, and authorization flags—without verifying the identity or authenticity of the sending process. An attacker can obtain elevated administrative privileges on the web management interface without legitimate authentication.

Authentication Bypass and Root Command Injection in Brocade Fabric OS Remote Execution Service

An authentication bypass and command injection vulnerability exists in the inter-switch remote execution service of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. When processing remote command execution IPC frames across the fabric, the receiving switch processes these commands at an elevated processing level without proper verification of transmitted parameters. This allows an attacker on a single fabric-connected switch to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary root commands locally or across other managed fabric members where remote execution functionality is enabled.

Arbitrary Shell Command Execution via Unsanitized Parameters in Brocade Fabric OS Upgrade Process

Brocade Fabric versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1 handling of specific download protocols utilizes unsanitized parameter strings. When processing upgrade requests, parameters are converted into system command strings and executed through a system shell interface. Because control characters and shell metacharacters in fields like the host or file path are not stripped or sanitized, an attacker can execute arbitrary shell commands with the firmware management daemon's elevated privileges.

Persistent Denial of Service via Corrupted Apache Configuration in Brocade Fabric OS

Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1 directly accepts Apache configuration file data during service setup or re-initialization. An attacker capable of corrupting the configuration structure will prevent the web management service from starting or recovering during service bring-up, leading to a persistent Denial of Service (DoS) of the administrative web interface.

Missing Security Headers Enable Unauthenticated XSS and Clickjacking on Brocade ASCG

In Brocade ASCG before Brocade ASCG v3.0, several security-related HTTP Headers were missing in various Brocade ASCG URL paths, aiding unauthenticated attackers to perform attacks such as Cross-Site Scripting, Clickjacking, Information disclosure, and more.

Command Injection via Unsanitized Certificate Identifier in Fabric OS API

An input validation vulnerability exists in the security certificate management component of the Brocade Fabric OS administrative management API. When processing certificate management operations, user-supplied certificate identifiers are handled without adequate sanitization prior to execution in external system routines. An authenticated attacker with privileges to perform certificate deletion requests can leverage this flaw to execute arbitrary system commands with the privileges of the underlying management daemon. This vulnerability affects Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1.

Arbitrary File Deletion via REST API in Brocade Fabric OS

An arbitrary file and directory deletion vulnerability exists in the REST API management interface handling USB storage operations on Brocade Fabric OS versions before 10.0.1. An authenticated user possessing USB management privileges can manipulate requested target paths to delete arbitrary files or directories on the switch's local root filesystem, bypassing intended USB mount point boundaries.

Race Condition in Broadcom Fabric OS Web Daemon Enables Potential Access Control Bypass

A race condition and thread-safety vulnerability exists in the web management daemon of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 10.0.1. When handling user authentication requests across a multi-threaded execution pool, this race condition causes PAM modules to process stale or incorrect client IP addresses and switch context numbers. This leads to inaccurate audit records and potential access control bypasses where AAA evaluation or Calling-Station-ID ACL policies rely on client IP attributes.

Local User Privilege Escalation in Fabric OS Diagnostic Kernel Module

An improper file permission and missing authorization vulnerability exists in the diagnostic kernel module subsystem of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. An unprivileged local user can invoke privileged hardware tests, force system error conditions, reset hardware blades, or disrupt storage fabric operations.

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the time and zone management subsystem of Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2d and 10.0.0 through 10.0.0a1. When updating system timezone settings via the REST API or configuration download routines, the system fails to sanitize input values before processing them in underlying shell execution routines. An authenticated user with low-privilege administrative access can exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted timezone string containing shell metacharacters. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to escape the restricted management environment and execute arbitrary shell commands with elevated privileges.
