Vulnerability details
Termix is a web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities. Prior to version 2.3.2, the File Manager functionality in Termix contains a critical Broken Access Control vulnerability due to improper validation of the sessionId parameter.…
more
The backend trusts a client-controlled identifier without verifying that it belongs to the authenticated user. This allows an attacker to manipulate the value and access active File Manager sessions belonging to other users. Since these sessions are tied to SSH connections to remote VPS instances, exploitation allows unauthorized interaction with another user's remote filesystem. Because the File Manager exposes functionality such as file reading, writing, uploading, and execution, this vulnerability enables direct command execution on another user's VPS (RCE). Version 2.3.2 patches the issue.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Ensuring access control decisions are made and applied to every request before enforcement directly prevents improper access control by requiring policy-based checks.
Enforcing approved authorizations directly implements access control policies to block unauthorized access.
The access control policy and procedures directly mandate and enforce proper access control mechanisms across the organization.
Device lock enforces restricted access until re-authentication, directly reducing unauthorized use of active sessions.
Supervision and review of access control activities directly detects and remediates improper access configurations or usages.
Explicitly identifying and documenting actions permitted without identification or authentication enforces proper access control boundaries by defining justified exceptions.
By automatically labeling outputs with security attributes, the control supports attribute-based enforcement and reduces exploitability of improper access control weaknesses.
Associating and retaining security attributes with data directly supports enforcement of access control decisions across storage, processing, and transmission.
