MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 1 tactic: Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to reach the device's HTTP/management API endpoint (the action_deal_update route in /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/api/rcmsAPI.lua, part of the LuCI-based web interface) and to hold low-privilege authenticated access (CVSS PR:L), after which a crafted POST request injects OS commands. The primary limiting factor is the authentication requirement: an attacker needs valid credentials or an existing session on the router before the injection can be triggered. No special non-default configuration is indicated in the description; the vulnerable endpoint appears to be part of the standard firmware. Network exposure of the management interface (e.g., WAN-facing admin access) materially increases real-world risk. |
| Impact | This is a moderately high priority issue warranting prompt remediation, though not an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (High) reflects a network-reachable (AV:N), low-complexity (AC:L) attack requiring only low privileges (PR:L) and no user interaction (UI:N), with full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H) on an unchanged scope. Because PR:L is present, the attacker must first hold some authenticated foothold rather than being fully unauthenticated - this meaningfully limits mass exploitation. Supporting signals are mixed: publicly available exploit code exists (per the referenced GitHub report), which raises practical risk, but the EPSS score is only 3.05% (87th percentile) - elevated relative to the average CVE yet still well below the threshold typically associated with imminent widespread exploitation. The vulnerability is NOT listed in CISA KEV, so there is no confirmation of active in-the-wild exploitation. No SSVC decision data was supplied in the input. Net assessment: a real, actionable OS command injection with public PoC on a network device, but the authentication requirement and modest EPSS suggest targeted rather than opportunistic mass exploitation at this time. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with low-level authenticated access to the RG-BCR860's web management interface sends a crafted POST request to the action_deal_update handler in rcmsAPI.lua, injecting shell metacharacters into an unsanitized parameter that is passed to an OS command. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists, lowering the barrier to weaponization. Given the network attack vector and low complexity, successful injection yields arbitrary command execution on the underlying router OS. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 14, 2026
Authenticated attackers with low-privilege access can execute arbitrary OS commands on Ruijie RG-BCR860 routers by sending a crafted POST request to the action_deal_update endpoint in the LuCI-based web management interface. Exploitation requires network reachability to the management API and valid credentials, but publicly available exploit code exists, and the EPSS score of 3.05% (87th percentile) indicates a moderate likelihood of exploitation. No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; users should monitor Ruijie's official support channels for a firmware update. In the absence of a patch, restrict access to the router's web management interface by disabling WAN-side administration and placing the device behind a firewall or VPN, which may limit remote management convenience but significantly reduces exposure. Additional mitigations include changing default credentials, using strong unique passwords, and monitoring network traffic for POST requests to the action_deal_update endpoint. Network segmentation to isolate the router from critical systems can also limit the blast radius if exploitation occurs.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a classic OS command injection (CWE-78) in the LuCI web framework's rcmsAPI.lua controller file, part of the Ruijie RG-BCR860 firmware. LuCI is a web-based configuration interface used on embedded devices, and the action_deal_update endpoint processes POST requests without adequately sanitizing user input before passing it to a system shell. Because the web server typically runs with high privileges on such devices, injected commands execute with root-level access, leading to complete compromise. The CPE entry cpe:2.3:o:ruijie:rg-bcr860_firmware:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms that all firmware versions of this router model are potentially affected, and the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) indicates that an attacker with low-privilege authenticated access can achieve high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

DescriptionCVE.org
OS Command Injection vulnerability in Ruijie RG-BCR RG-BCR860 allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted POST request to the action_deal_update in file /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/api/rcmsAPI.lua.
Executive ViewAI
Ruijie RG-BCR860 routers - commonly deployed as branch and small-office edge devices - contain a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.8) in the LuCI web management interface that allows a user holding valid low-privilege credentials to run arbitrary operating-system commands on the device. Publicly available exploit code exists and no vendor patch has been identified, meaning any organization exposing these routers' management interfaces to untrusted networks cannot rely on a vendor fix to close the gap. Leadership should care because full compromise of an edge router can enable traffic interception, configuration manipulation, and a pivot point into the internal network, affecting every user and site behind that device.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: remove or firewall management-interface exposure to the Internet and untrusted networks, restrict administration to a dedicated management VLAN and a small set of trusted jump hosts with MFA, maintain least-privilege and unique credentials with strict account review, monitor management-interface authentication and command activity for anomalies, verify device configuration/firmware integrity, and plan replacement of affected RG-BCR860 devices where exposure cannot be eliminated.
