Certain NETGEAR devices are affected by command injection by an unauthenticated attacker. This affects D6100 before 1.0.0.57, R6100 before 1.0.1.20, R7500v2 before 1.0.3.24, WNDR4300v2 before 1.0.0.50, and WNDR4500v3 before 1.0.0.50.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
