Administrative arbitrary OS command execution

Published Aug 16, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

OS command injection in Nintendo Wi-Fi Network Adaptor WAP-001 all versions allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary OS commands. The public advisories identify only the administrative page; they do not disclose the affected input or the operation that fails to neutralize it. Administrative-page access from an adjacent network is required, and successful exploitation runs commands with the appliance's own privileges.
