{"id":"CVE-2022-2068","aliases":[],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2022-2068","summary":"The c_rehash script allows command injection","details":"In addition to the c_rehash shell command injection identified in CVE-2022-1292, further circumstances where the c_rehash script does not properly sanitise shell metacharacters to prevent command injection were found by code review. When the CVE-2022-1292 was fixed it was not discovered that there are other places in the script where the file names of certificates being hashed were possibly passed to a command executed through the shell. This script is distributed by some operating systems in a manner where it is automatically executed. On such operating systems, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script. Use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool. Fixed in OpenSSL 3.0.4 (Affected 3.0.0,3.0.1,3.0.2,3.0.3). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1p (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1o). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2zf (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2ze).","published":"2022-06-21T14:45:20.597Z","modified":"2026-08-12T12:59:14.323152Z","cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":{"score":0.95404,"percentile":0.99865,"asOf":"2026-09-13"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2024/Nov/0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/pdf/ssa-332410.pdf"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=2c9c35870601b4a44d86ddbf512b38df38285cfa"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=7a9c027159fe9e1bbc2cd38a8a2914bff0d5abd9"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=9639817dac8bbbaa64d09efad7464ccc405527c7"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20220621.txt"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/2xxx/CVE-2022-2068.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/6WZZBKUHQFGSKGNXXKICSRPL7AMVW5M5/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/VCMNWKERPBKOEBNL7CLTTX3ZZCZLH7XA/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-2068"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20220707-0008/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.debian.org/security/2022/dsa-5169"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://gitlab.com/fraf0/cve-2022-1292-re_score-analysis"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T12:59:14.323152Z"}}
