AI-suggested
Since this is a device firmware vulnerability and the product is not a cloud service, remediation depends on the vendor releasing a firmware update that addresses the issue. Until a fix is available, affected devices should be isolated from untrusted networks to prevent exploitation. Monitor vendor communications for updates and apply firmware updates promptly once released.
Description
WDR201A WiFi Extender (HW V2.1, FW LFMZX28040922V1.02) contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the internet.cgi binary that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands by injecting malicious input into the gateway POST parameter. Attackers can exploit unsanitized parameter concatenation in the set_add_routing function to inject shell commands that are executed via popen() with partial output reflected in the HTTP response.
