Technical details
A command injection vulnerability exists in the Liquidsoap config generation for live recording (backend/src/Radio/Backend/Liquidsoap/ConfigWriter.php). The vulnerability arises from unsafe interpolation of the authenticated streamer username into a process.run call that moves recorded files, without using Liquidsoap's process.quote function. An authenticated attacker with Streamers and Profile permissions can set a username containing shell metacharacters, enable live stream recording, connect and disconnect from the DJ harbor, triggering command execution as the Liquidsoap/stations user when the on_close event fires.
