CVE-2024-14026 | QTS, QuTS hero

A command injection vulnerability has been reported to affect several QNAP operating system versions. If an attacker gains local network access who have also gained a user account, they can then exploit the vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands. We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following versions: QTS 5.1.9.2954 build 20241120 and later QTS 5.2.3.3006 build 20250108 and later QuTS hero h5.1.9.2954 build 20241120 and later QuTS hero h5.2.3.3006 build 20250108 and later

7.8 3.1 HIGH
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:L)
They already need access on the box, or another person has to do something wrong; it’s not a remote drive-by.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
