SINEC INS vulnerabilities

SINEC INS (all versions prior to V1.0 SP2 Update 6) uses a password hashing implementation with a static, hardcoded salt shared across all users and installations, and an insufficient number of iterations. This allows an attacker to efficiently recover user passwords using brute-force or precomputed attacks (e.g., rainbow tables).

In SINEC INS prior to V1.0 SP2 Update 6, a binary is configured with the cap_dac_override capability, bypassing file system permission checks. A local attacker can escalate privileges, modify arbitrary files, and gain root access.

A vulnerability in SINEC INS (all versions before V1.0 SP2 Update 6) allows path traversal via the `GET /api/sftp/uploadFiles` endpoint due to improper sanitization of path input. This enables access to unauthorized file system locations.

In SINEC INS versions prior to V1.0 SP2 Update 6, user input is not properly sanitized in the /api/sftp/uploadFiles endpoint, allowing injection of shell command payloads via crafted directory names. These payloads are stored and executed when directory listings are retrieved.
