A vulnerability exists in Advantech iView that allows for argument injection in NetworkServlet.backupDatabase(). This issue requires an authenticated attacker with at least user-level privileges. Certain parameters can be used directly in a command without proper sanitization, allowing arbitrary arguments to be injected. This can result in information disclosure, including sensitive database credentials.
Solution:
The product constructs a string for a command to be executed by a separate component in another control sphere, but it does not properly delimit the intended arguments, options, or switches within that command string.
