Overview
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system has identified a serious security vulnerability in AndSoft’s e-TMS v25.03. This vulnerability, designated as CVE-2025-59741, is a command injection vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute system-level commands on the server by sending a maliciously crafted POST request. As AndSoft’s e-TMS is used widely in the logistics industry, this vulnerability can potentially affect many organizations and could lead to widespread data leakage and system compromise. Therefore, it is important to understand the nature of CVE-2025-59741 and apply the necessary patches or mitigations as soon as possible.

How the Exploit Works
The vulnerability lies in the handling of the ‘m’ parameter in the ‘/CLT/LOGINERRORFRM.ASP’ endpoint. An attacker can exploit this by sending a carefully crafted POST request that includes a command injection payload. The server, failing to properly sanitize the input, executes the injected command with system-level privileges, allowing the attacker to gain control over the system.
Conceptual Example Code
Here is a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited. This example uses an HTTP POST request with a hypothetical command injection payload:
POST /CLT/LOGINERRORFRM.ASP HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
m=1;cat /etc/passwd
In this example, the `m` parameter is appended with a command separator (`;`) followed by a Unix command (`cat /etc/passwd`), which if executed, would display the contents of the server’s password file. This is just one example of a command that could be injected – a real-world attacker would likely use a command that provides further system access or data exfiltration capabilities.
Mitigation Guidance
Users of AndSoft’s e-TMS v25.03 should apply the vendor-supplied patch as soon as possible. If this is not feasible, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can be used as a temporary mitigation measure. These systems can be configured to detect and block attempts to exploit this vulnerability. However, they should not be considered a long-term solution.
