Script execution via improper menu.cgi input processing
Published Aug 30, 2024 · Updated Sep 19, 2025
Cross-site scripting in affected ELECOM wireless access points allows remote attackers to execute scripts in a logged-in user's browser. menu.cgi improperly processes untrusted input values when generating management-interface content, allowing attacker-supplied script code to reach the browser. The attack requires a product-authenticated user to visit a malicious web page, and the reported consequence is confined to browser-side script execution.
