Technical details
The WebSSH/WebTelnet listener in the custom shellinaboxd implementation fails to properly validate the rooturl parameter, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform server-side request forgery. By modifying the rooturl parameter in a web request, an attacker can cause the device to establish SSH connections to attacker-controlled endpoints or internal network targets. This enables network reconnaissance and potential lateral movement into otherwise isolated management infrastructure.
