A weakness has been identified in Edimax BR-6478AC 1.23. This affects the function formStaDrvSetup of the file /goform/formStaDrvSetup of the component POST Request Handler. This manipulation of the argument rootAPmac causes command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.
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.
