Overview
The CVE-2025-59736 vulnerability is a severe security flaw in AndSoft’s e-TMS v25.03. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server by taking advantage of an operating system command injection vulnerability. This is a high-risk vulnerability, as it could lead to complete system compromise or data leakage. The severity of this vulnerability should not be underestimated, as it has the potential to affect a wide range of systems, and cause significant damage to businesses and individuals alike.

How the Exploit Works
The vulnerability stems from a lack of proper input validation on the ‘m’ parameter in the ‘/clt/LOGINFRM_DJO.ASP’ endpoint. This allows an attacker to send a crafted POST request containing malicious operating system commands. The server, failing to properly sanitize the input, executes the injected commands, leading to potential system compromise or data leakage.
Conceptual Example Code
Below is a conceptual example of a malicious HTTP POST request exploiting the vulnerability:
POST /clt/LOGINFRM_DJO.ASP HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
m=;rm+-rf+/; // This is a conceptual example. This command would delete all files on a Unix-like system.
Note: This is a conceptual example only. In a real attack scenario, the payload would likely be more complex and tailored to the specific system being targeted.
Mitigation Guidance
The recommended mitigation is to apply the vendor’s patch as soon as it is available. In the meantime, implementing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as a temporary mitigation measure. These systems can be configured to detect and block suspicious requests, potentially preventing exploitation of this vulnerability.
