CVE-2026-48694
Published: May 26, 2026· Updated: May 27, 2026
Official Description
FastNetMon Community Edition through 1.2.9 contains a configuration injection vulnerability in the Juniper router integration plugin. In src/juniper_plugin/fastnetmon_juniper.php, the $IP_ATTACK variable (received from argv[1]) is directly interpolated into Juniper NETCONF set-configuration commands at lines 69 and 90 without any validation or sanitization. Line 69: $conn->load_set_configuration("set routing-options static route {$IP_ATTACK} community 65535:666 discard"). Line 90: $conn->load_set_configuration("delete routing-options static route {$IP_ATTACK}/32"). An attacker who can control the IP address string can inject additional Juniper CLI configuration commands by embedding newline characters followed by arbitrary set/delete commands. This could modify the router's routing table, firewall filters, user accounts, or any other configuration element accessible via NETCONF. The impact is full router compromise.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-48694 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 8.1.
