Authenticated command execution via unsanitized WPS PIN
Published Jun 25, 2025 · Updated Jun 25, 2025
OS command injection in TOTOLINK CA300-PoE 6.2c.884 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands through a crafted PIN. SetWLanApcliSettings in wps.so passes the request-controlled PIN value into an operating-system command without neutralizing command substitutions. An authenticated management session can start a shell service on the appliance, granting command execution with the web process's privileges.
