Summary

A command injection vulnerability in luci-proto-openvpn through version 0.11.1 (fixed in commit e4ff45e) exists in the generateKey ubus method. The cl_meta parameter is interpolated into a shell command without proper escaping, allowing an authenticated LuCI user with OpenVPN configuration access to execute arbitrary commands as root via the popen function.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can gain full control over the router or network device by executing arbitrary commands as root, compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.

Recommendation

Immediately update the luci-proto-openvpn package to a version containing commit e4ff45e or later. If an update is not possible, restrict access to the LuCI interface to trusted users only.
