When adding a remote backup location, an authenticated user can pass arbitrary OS commands through the username field. The username is passed without sanitization into CMD running as NT/Authority System. An authenticated attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with system-level access to the CyberPower PowerPanel Enterprise server.
The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.
