other OINKCODE↗

• → Monitor HTTP requests to ids.cgi containing shell metacharacters or command injection payloads in the OINKCODE parameter field. ↗
• → This vulnerability can be exploited via CSRF in addition to direct authenticated access — monitor for unexpected cross-origin POST requests targeting ids.cgi. ↗
• → Flag IPFire instances running versions below 2.19 Update Core 110 as unpatched and at risk of remote command execution via ids.cgi. ↗

• · Exploitation requires authentication OR a CSRF vector, meaning unauthenticated remote exploitation is only possible if an authenticated user can be socially engineered into triggering the CSRF payload. ↗
