Summary
A vulnerability in the web interface of the BMC (IPMI) on Supermicro X11 and M11 devices with firmware versions before 3.17.02 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted request targeting vulnerable CGI endpoints.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves potential full compromise of the BMC by an authenticated attacker, leading to integrity and confidentiality breaches of managed hardware and possible attacks on the IT infrastructure.
Recommendation
Immediately update the BMC firmware to version 3.17.02 or later and restrict access to the BMC web interface to trusted networks only.
