Technical details
A command injection vulnerability exists in the Tenda 5G03 router within the '/usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/telephony.lua' file. The 'action_unlock_sim' function fails to properly sanitize the 'pin' parameter before passing it to a system shell. An authenticated attacker with access to the web management interface can exploit this by sending a specially crafted POST request to the '/cgi-bin/luci/admin/telephony/trigger_sim_unlock' endpoint. Successful exploitation allows for arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the web server, typically root on such embedded devices.
