opnsense/core

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.8, unsanitized user input is passed to the DHCP configuration of the configured interface, which is processed by a shell script, allowing remote code execution as root on the underlying operating system. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.8.

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.7, a logic flaw in the OPNsense lockout_handler allows an unauthenticated attacker to continuously reset the authentication failure counter for their IP address. By interjecting a crafted username containing a success keyword ("Accepted" or "Successful login") between normal brute-force attempts, an attacker can prevent the failure counter from ever reaching the lockout threshold. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.7.

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.8, an authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in the OPNsense core allows a user with user-management privileges to execute arbitrary system commands as root. An attacker can bypass input validation by formatting their malicious payload as a compliant email address, allowing shell commands to reach the underlying operating system. The flaw exists in the local user synchronization flow, within core/src/opnsense/scripts/auth/sync_user.php. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.8.

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.7, the XMLRPC method opnsense.restore_config_section fails to sanitize user supplied input leading to Remote Code Execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.7.

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.6, OPNsense's LDAP authentication connector passes the login username directly into an LDAP search filter without calling ldap_escape(). An unauthenticated attacker can inject LDAP filter metacharacters into the username field of the WebGUI login page to enumerate valid LDAP usernames in the configured directory. When the LDAP server configuration includes an Extended Query to restrict login to members of a specific group, the same injection can be used to bypass that group membership restriction and authenticate as any LDAP user whose password is known, regardless of group membership. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.6.

OPNsense is a FreeBSD based firewall and routing platform. Prior to 26.1.4, multiple OPNsense MVC API endpoints perform state‑changing operations but are accessible via HTTP GET requests without CSRF protection. The framework CSRF validation in ApiControllerBase only applies to POST/PUT/DELETE methods, allowing authenticated GET requests to bypass CSRF verification. As a result, a malicious website can trigger privileged backend actions when visited by an authenticated user, causing unintended service reloads and configuration changes through configd. This results in an authenticated Cross‑Site Request Forgery vulnerability allowing unauthorized system state changes. This vulnerability is fixed in 26.1.4.

Deciso OPNsense diag_backup.php filename Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Deciso OPNsense. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of backup configuration files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-28131.

Deciso OPNsense diag_backup.php filename Directory Traversal Arbitrary File Creation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to create arbitrary files on affected installations of Deciso OPNsense. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of backup configuration files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to create files in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-28133.

OPNsense before 23.7.5 allows XSS via the index.php column_count parameter to the Lobby Dashboard.

OPNsense before 23.7.5 allows XSS via the index.php sequence parameter to the Lobby Dashboard.

/ui/cron/item/open in the Cron component of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows XSS via openAction in app/controllers/OPNsense/Cron/ItemController.php.

A command injection vulnerability in the component /api/cron/settings/setJob/ of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary system commands.

The Crash Reporter (crash_reporter.php) component of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 mishandles input sanitization.

Insecure permissions exist for configd.socket in OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2.

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the act parameter of system_certmanager.php in OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted payload.

A command injection vulnerability in the component diag_backup.php of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted backup configuration file.

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the component /ui/diagnostics/log/core/ of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript via the URL path.

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in the System Halt API (/system/halt) of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted GET request.

An open redirect in the Login page of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to redirect a victim user to an arbitrary web site via a crafted URL.

A directory traversal vulnerability in the Captive Portal templates of OPNsense Community Edition before 23.7 and Business Edition before 23.4.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary system commands as root via a crafted ZIP archive.

An open redirect issue was discovered in OPNsense through 20.1.5. The redirect parameter "url" in login page was not filtered and can redirect user to any website.

pfSense versions 2.4.1 and lower are vulnerable to clickjacking attacks in the CSRF error page resulting in privileged execution of arbitrary code, because the error detection occurs before an X-Frame-Options header is set. This is fixed in 2.4.2-RELEASE. OPNsense, a 2015 fork of pfSense, was not vulnerable since version 16.1.16 released on June 06, 2016. The unprotected web form was removed from the code during an internal security audit under "possibly insecure" suspicions.
