XWEB EVO contains a pre-authentication OS command injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. Attackers can exploit the unescaped interpolation of the password value into the hashpass invocation within login.lua, cleanout.lua, and api.lua to achieve root-level command execution via the setuid wlua interpreter. This product line reached its end of service date in March 2026.

Impact

Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as root.
