CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router is susceptible to a critical command injection vulnerability in the ping functionality of the /cgi-bin/portal.cgi endpoint, where insufficient input validation allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands, potentially leading to full system compromise. Organizations using this router should prioritize immediate firmware updates to version 1.1.0.651412 to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and control. This vulnerability poses a significant threat to network security and should be addressed promptly by all affected users.
Original NVD Description
WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router is vulnerable to a command injection. The vulnerability exists in the ping functionality within the /cgi-bin/portal.cgi endpoint, specifically affecting the ping_ip, ping_size, and ping_times POST parameters. The root cause is the failure to verify and sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating it into a system command. This allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the shell and gain root access to the system.This issue has been fixed in firmware version 1.1.0.651412
