Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recently, a critical vulnerability, designated as CVE-2025-3542, has been discovered in multiple H3C Magic devices. This vulnerability impacts the Magic NX15, Magic NX400, and Magic R3010 up to version V100R014. It is particularly concerning because the exploit can lead to command injection<\/a>, which can potentially compromise the system or result in data leakage. Given that H3C Magic devices are widely used, this vulnerability has far-reaching implications and could potentially<\/a> impact a vast number of networks.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2025-3542
\nSeverity: Critical, CVSS Score: 8.0
\nAttack Vector: Local network
\nPrivileges Required: None
\nUser Interaction: Required
\nImpact: Potential system<\/a> compromise or data leakage<\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

H3C Magic<\/a> NX15 | Up to V100R014
\nH3C Magic<\/a> NX400 | Up to V100R014
\nH3C Magic<\/a> R3010 | Up to V100R014<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

This vulnerability arises due to improper sanitization of user<\/a> input in the HTTP POST Request Handler’s FCGI_WizardProtoProcess function. An attacker with access to the local network can exploit this weakness by sending a crafted HTTP POST request to the \/api\/wizard\/getsyncpppoecfg endpoint, which can lead to command injection<\/a>. This command injection can allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the device, potentially leading to system<\/a> compromise and data leakage.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

Below is a conceptual example demonstrating how the vulnerability might be exploited<\/a>:<\/p>\n

POST \/api\/wizard\/getsyncpppoecfg HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/json\n{ \"command\": \"; rm -rf \/\" }<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this hypothetical example, the attacker is injecting a command (`; rm -rf \/`) that, if executed, would delete all files<\/a> on the device’s filesystem. This is only a conceptual example and the actual malicious payload would likely be far more sophisticated.<\/p>\n
Mitigation Guidance<\/strong><\/p>\n
To protect against this vulnerability<\/a>, it is recommended to apply the vendor-provided patch as soon as possible. In the interim, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as a temporary mitigation measure. However, these should not be considered a permanent solution, as they may not fully prevent the exploitation of this vulnerability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
