A flaw has been found in Wavlink WL-NU516U1 240425. This affects the function ota_new_upgrade of the file /cgi-bin/adm.cgi. This manipulation of the argument model causes command injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure.

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.
