Authenticated command execution through unneutralized method input
Published May 24, 2026 · Updated May 24, 2026
Command injection in Edimax EW-7438RPn 1.12 allows remote authenticated users to execute operating-system commands through a POST request. The CNA ties the flaw to formEZCHNwlanSetup and an unneutralized method parameter, but its proof of concept targets BR-6675nD instead. Low-privilege authentication is required, and successful exploitation executes commands on the appliance; applicability to the CNA-named model remains unverified.
