A vulnerability was found in Wavlink WL-WN579A3 up to 20210219. This impacts the function multi_ssid of the file /cgi-bin/wireless.cgi. Performing a manipulation of the argument SSID2G2 results in command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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.
