**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** pfSense versions prior to 2.1.4 **Description** The issue allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands. This can be achieved through various means, including the hostname value to "diag dns.php" in a Create Alias action, the `smartmonemail` value to "diag smart.php", or the `database` value to "status rrd graph img.php". **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.1.4, update to version 2.1.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the affected PHP files, such as "diag dns.php", "diag smart.php", and "status rrd graph img.php", until a patch is applied. Additionally, restrict the use of the `smartmonemail` and `database` variables in the respective API endpoints to minimize the risk of exploitation.
