CVE-2025-34082
Published: 03 July 2025
Summary
CVE-2025-34082 is a critical-severity OS Command Injection (CWE-78) vulnerability in Igel OS (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).
Operationally, ranked in the top 1.4% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
Deeper analysis
A command injection vulnerability exists in IGEL OS versions prior to 11.04.270 within the Secure Terminal and Secure Shadow services. The flaw stems from improper input sanitization when processing specially crafted PROXYCMD commands received on TCP ports 30022 and 5900, and is tracked under CWE-78. IGEL OS 10.x has reached end-of-life status, leaving those deployments without vendor support.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access to a vulnerable device can supply malicious PROXYCMD input to execute arbitrary commands, resulting in remote code execution with elevated privileges. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3, reflecting network-accessible attack complexity that requires no authentication or user interaction.
Public references include an IGEL security advisory and release notes for version 11.04.270 that address the issue, along with a Metasploit module implementing the exploit. The associated EPSS score stands at 0.6714 with no material rise from a lower baseline.
