kiwi before 4.98.08, as used in SUSE Studio Onsite 1.2 before 1.2.1 and SUSE Studio Extension for System z 1.2 before 1.2.1, allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the path of an overlay file, related to chown.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects older kiwi image-building software used by SUSE Studio Onsite and SUSE Studio Extension for System z. A crafted overlay file path could cause kiwi to run unintended shell commands during ownership changes. Organizations still using these legacy build systems should treat this as a build-environment compromise risk. Exposure is most likely in legacy SUSE Studio or kiwi image-build workflows that process overlay files from users, projects, templates, or automation. Internet-facing exposure is not established by the provided sources. Prioritize if legacy image-building infrastructure remains in use, especially where multiple users or automation can submit build content. If these products are retired, document that status and close exposure tracking. Mitigation focus: Upgrade kiwi to 4.98.08 or later where applicable.; Upgrade SUSE Studio Onsite to 1.2.1 or later if still used.; Upgrade SUSE Studio Extension for System z to 1.2.1 or later if still used..
