Technical details
The vulnerability is an OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) in the apautotest function within DrayTek VigorAP firmware. The vulnerable code fails to properly validate or sanitize the CMD0, CMD3, and CMD6 input fields before passing them to operating system command execution routines. An attacker who possesses valid administrative credentials and gains authenticated access to the device's web management interface can supply specially crafted input containing shell metacharacters or command sequences to achieve arbitrary command execution with root privileges. Patches are available in the form of firmware updates for all affected models (VigorAP 918R 1.4.11+, 960C/1060C 1.4.12+, 906 1.4.13+, 912C 1.4.15+, and 903 1.4.22+).
