Authenticated command execution via management-page request
Published Sep 10, 2024 · Updated Sep 10, 2024
OS command injection in affected BUFFALO wireless LAN routers and repeaters allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands. Public advisories identify only a specially crafted request from a product-specific management page; they do not disclose the affected handler, parameter, or command construction. Administrative access to the management page is required, and successful exploitation grants arbitrary command execution on the appliance.
