Summary

Improper input validation in the SSH Elevate Shell feature allows an authenticated user with permission to create or modify a shared SSH entry to execute arbitrary commands on a remote SSH host using stored elevation credentials via a crafted alternate username and user interaction with the Elevate Shell action.

Risk Assessment

The organization is at risk of unauthorized command execution on remote SSH systems using stored elevated credentials, potentially leading to privilege escalation and system integrity compromise.

Recommendation

Immediately update Remote Desktop Manager to version 2026.2.8.0 or later which contains the fix. Until the update, restrict permissions to create or modify shared SSH entries to trusted users only.
