Froxlor 2.3.6 FTP Shell Assignment - Authorization Bypass

Title source: manual
STIX 2.1

Description

Froxlor is open source server administration software. Version 2.3.6 lets administrators configure `system.available_shells` as the approved shell list that customers may assign to FTP users. However, the server-side FTP account handlers do not enforce that whitelist when processing add or edit requests. As a result, an authenticated customer with shell delegation enabled can submit an arbitrary shell such as `/bin/bash` even when the panel UI only offers more restricted choices. In deployments that use the default `nssextrausers` integration, the attacker-controlled shell is then propagated into the system account database, leading to real host shell access. Version 2.3.7 fixes the issue.
