CVE-2024-12430 — An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could cause enable command execution
An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could cause enable command execution. A vulnerability exists in the AC500 V3 version mentioned. After successfully exploiting CVE-2024-12429 (directory traversal), a successfully authenticated attacker can inject arbitrary commands into a specifically crafted file, which then will be executed by root user. All AC500 V3 products (PM5xxx) with firmware version earlier than 3.8.0 are affected by this vulnerability.

Matched remediation archetype
Path traversal, unsafe upload, and file handling
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace untrusted filenames, archive entries, URLs, and path segments into read, write, include, extraction, and upload operations.
- Identify filesystem roots, mount permissions, symbolic-link behavior, archive handling, and whether uploaded content is web-accessible or executable.
- Review canonicalization and containment checks across supported operating systems and storage backends.
Remediate safely
- Generate server-side storage identifiers and resolve paths beneath a fixed root using filesystem-aware containment checks.
- Reject absolute, parent-relative, alternate-separator, device, link, and archive entries that escape the intended root.
- Store uploads outside executable or served paths, validate type and size, and use private atomic temporary files.
