Teleport 9.3.6 is vulnerable to command injection leading to remote code execution. An attacker can craft a malicious ssh agent installation link by URL encoding a bash escape with carriage return line feed. This url encoded payload can be used in place of a token and sent to a user in a social engineering attack. This is fully unauthenticated attack utilizing the trusted teleport server to deliver the payload.

Vulnerability Type: otherCommand injection leading to Remote Code Execution
Vendor of Product:Teleport - https://goteleport.com/
Affected software version: Teleport version < v10.1.2
Affected Component:https://teleport.examplesite.com/scripts/*INJECTION-POINT*/install-node.sh?method=iam <https://teleport.site.com/scripts/*INJECTION-POINT*/install-node.sh?method=iam>
Attack Type:Remote
Impact:Code Execution
Impact Other:This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject code into a bash script without authentication, and craft a legitimate link hosted on the teleport server to use in social engineering attacks. When a user executes the command to install an teleport SSH agent with the crafted link, it will install the teleport agent and without the users knowledge, execute malicious code in the background.
Attack Vectors:An attacker can craft a malicious ssh agent installation link by URL encoding a bash escape with carriage return line feed. This url encoded payload can be used in place of a token and sent to a user in a social engineering attack. This is fully unauthenticated attack utilizing the trusted teleport server to deliver the payload.
