Description
An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the Edimax EW-7438RPn Mini firmware version 1.13 and prior via the syscmd.asp form handler. The /goform/formSysCmd endpoint exposes a system command interface through the sysCmd parameter. A remote authenticated attacker can submit arbitrary shell commands directly, resulting in command execution as the root user. Exploitation evidence was observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-09-14 UTC.
