Froxlor is open source server administration software. Version 2.3.6 contains a symlink-following flaw in the root-owned SSH key synchronization path used for customer FTP users. The provisioning code appends public keys to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` under a customer-controlled home directory without verifying that the target path is not a symbolic link. If an attacker controls a shell-enabled customer account and can modify files inside the assigned home directory, the attacker can replace `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` with a symlink to `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`. When Froxlor's privileged cron task later synchronizes SSH keys, it appends the attacker-supplied key into root's authorized key file, resulting in root SSH access. Version 2.3.7 contains a patch.

GHSA-mq5v-pxpm-8jw2 — Froxlor has privilege escalation in SSH key synchronization via symlinked `authorized_keys` path

### Summary Froxlor 2.3.6 contains a symlink-following flaw in the root-owned SSH key synchronization path used for customer FTP users. The provisioning code appends public keys to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` under a customer-controlled home directory without verifying that the target path is not a symbolic link.

If an attacker controls a shell-enabled customer account and can modify files inside the assigned home directory, the attacker can replace `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` with a symlink to `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`. When Froxlor's privileged cron task later synchronizes SSH keys, it appends the attacker-supplied key into root's authorized key file, resulting in root SSH access.

### Details The customer-facing SSH key workflow accepts an FTP user selection and an arbitrary public key from the authenticated session and forwards them into `SshKeys::add()`:

```php // customer_ftp.php:251-253 if ($action == 'add' && Request::post('send') == 'send') { $result = $log->logAction(USR_ACTION, LOG_INFO, "added SSH-key"); Commands::get()->apiCall('SshKeys.add', Request::postAll()); } ```

On the server side, the add handler stores the public key and schedules an NSS rebuild as long as the customer has shell capability enabled at the customer level:

```php // lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/SshKeys.php:67-70,120-145 if ($this->getUserDetail('shell_allowed') != '1') { throw new Exception("You cannot add SSH keys because shell access is disabled for your account."); }

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Froxlor ausnutzen, um seine Privilegien zu erhöhen, um Informationen offenzulegen, um Dateien zu manipulieren, und um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen.
