CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Okta Access Gateway is vulnerable due to improper handling of shell metacharacters in SNMP configuration values, allowing authenticated local users to inject crafted inputs that can lead to arbitrary OS command execution with root privileges. This vulnerability poses a medium risk, as it could enable attackers to manipulate system operations and gain elevated access. Organizations utilizing Okta Access Gateway should prioritize remediation efforts to mitigate potential exploitation by local users with management interface access.
Original NVD Description
The Okta Access Gateway does not neutralize shell metacharacters in SNMP configuration values before a privileged script uses them to construct OS commands. An authenticated local user with access to the management interface can supply crafted values, resulting in the execution of arbitrary OS commands with root privileges.
