Summary

CVE-2025-24818 is a high-severity Command Injection (CWE-77) vulnerability in Nokia Mantaray Nm. Its CVSS base score is 8.0 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 36.7th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation).

Threat & Defense at a Glance

What attackers do: exploitation maps to Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190) and 1 other technique. What defenders deploy: see the NIST 800-53 controls recommended below.

Threat & Defense Details

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

prevent

Directly requires information input validation and neutralization of special elements in the Log Search application to prevent OS command injection.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match

prevent

Mandates identification, reporting, and correction of the specific OS command injection flaw via patching as detailed in the vendor advisory.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match

prevent

Enforces least privilege to limit the scope and impact of arbitrary commands executed by low-privilege adjacent attackers exploiting the vulnerability.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access

Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.

attack.mitre.org →

T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter Execution

Adversaries may abuse command and script interpreters to execute commands, scripts, or binaries.

attack.mitre.org →

Why these techniques?

OS command injection directly enables arbitrary command execution (T1059) via exploitation of a vulnerable network-accessible application (T1190).

NVD Description

Nokia MantaRay NM is vulnerable to an OS command injection vulnerability due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command in Log Search application.

Deeper analysisAI

CVE-2025-24818 is an OS command injection vulnerability (CWE-77) affecting the Log Search application in Nokia MantaRay NM. The flaw arises from improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command, allowing malicious input to execute arbitrary system commands. It was published on 2026-04-07 with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.0 (AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact.

Attackers with adjacent network access (AV:A) and low privileges (PR:L) can exploit this vulnerability with low complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction (UI:N). Successful exploitation enables arbitrary OS command execution on the affected system, resulting in high confidentiality (C:H), integrity (I:H), and availability (A:H) impacts within the unchanged scope (S:U). This could allow privilege escalation, data exfiltration, or system compromise from a nearby network position.
