Technical details

The vulnerability is an authentication bypass combined with remote code execution in Node-RED Admin API. The /nodered/ endpoint is exposed through a Caddy reverse proxy without authentication checks, allowing an unauthenticated attacker on the adjacent network to deploy flows that execute arbitrary system commands. This requires network access to the boneIO Black controller but no user interaction or credentials.
