Published Feb 24, 2026 · Updated Feb 24, 2026

Zyxel has not published which certificate-download input reaches an OS command or how the CGI program fails to neutralize it. Administrator credentials must be compromised, and remote reachability additionally requires WAN access to be enabled because it is disabled by default.
