CVE-2025-14705

9.8 CRITICAL

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on Shiguangwu sgwbox N3 NAS devices through command injection in the SHARESERVER feature. Attackers can gain full system control by manipulating parameters. All users running version 2.0.25 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Shiguangwu sgwbox N3
Versions: 2.0.25
Operating Systems: Embedded NAS OS
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: SHARESERVER feature appears to be enabled by default. No authentication bypass required for exploitation.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system compromise allowing attackers to install malware, exfiltrate data, pivot to other systems, or render the device unusable.

🟠

Likely Case

Remote code execution leading to data theft, ransomware deployment, or unauthorized access to network resources.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if device is isolated from internet and internal networks with strict network segmentation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: HIGH

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Public disclosure includes technical details. Remote exploitation without authentication makes this highly attractive to attackers.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Vendor has not responded to disclosure. Consider workarounds or replacement.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable SHARESERVER feature

all

Turn off the vulnerable SHARESERVER component to prevent exploitation

Check device web interface for SHARESERVER settings and disable

Network isolation

linux

Block all external access to the NAS device

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [NAS_PORTS] -j DROP
ufw deny from any to [NAS_IP]

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Immediately disconnect device from internet and isolate on separate VLAN
  • Implement strict firewall rules allowing only essential traffic from trusted sources

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check device version in web interface or via SSH: cat /etc/version or similar version file

Check Version:

Check device web admin interface or SSH into device and examine version files

Verify Fix Applied:

No official fix available. Verify workarounds by testing SHARESERVER access and confirming network isolation.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual command execution in system logs
  • SHARESERVER access with suspicious parameters
  • Unexpected process creation

Network Indicators:

  • Inbound connections to NAS SHARESERVER ports with command-like strings in payloads

SIEM Query:

source="nas_logs" AND ("SHARESERVER" AND ("cmd" OR "exec" OR "system" OR suspicious characters))
