QTS, QuTS hero, QuTScloud
QNAP Systems Inc. · QTS
An OS command injection flaw in QNAP's QTS operating system, which also affects QuTS hero and QuTScloud, allows malicious input to be passed to system commands. An attacker with adjacent-network access and no authentication, who can also exploit the flaw under the high-complexity conditions required, could execute arbitrary commands on the device.
An OS command injection vulnerability has been reported to affect several QNAP operating system versions. If exploited, the vulnerability could allow users to execute commands via a network. We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following versions: QTS 5.1.5.2645 build 20240116 and later QuTS hero h5.1.5.2647 build 20240118 and later QuTScloud c5.1.5.2651 and later
