IBM AIX 7.2 and 7.3 nimsh service SSL/TLS protection mechanisms could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands due to improper process controls.

Weakness

Executing commands or loading libraries from an untrusted source or in an untrusted environment can cause an application to execute malicious commands (and payloads) on behalf of an attacker.

Extended Description

Process control vulnerabilities of the first type occur when either data enters the application from an untrusted source and the data is used as part of a string representing a command that is executed by the application. By executing the command, the application gives an attacker a privilege or capability that the attacker would not otherwise have.
