CVE-2026-41036Network attack vector

Root code execution via management CLI injection

Published Apr 21, 2026 · Updated Apr 21, 2026

OS command injection in the Quantum Networks indoor access point at 6.1.1.B1 allows attackers with valid credentials to run code as root. The management CLI fails to sanitize attacker-controlled data before placing that data into an operating-system command. Network access and valid CLI credentials are required; successful injection grants root-level control of the appliance.
