| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires network access to the device's management interface and a low-privilege authenticated session (CVSS PR:L), after which a single crafted POST request to the module_set function in /usr/local/lua/dev_sta/nbr_cwmp.lua injects OS commands - no user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). Limiting factors: the attacker must first reach the management interface (typically LAN-side or an exposed/forwarded admin port) and must hold at least low-level credentials; the flaw is specific to Ruijie X60 PRO firmware (V1.00/V2.00, CPE 1.021.2014) and, per CPE, RG-EW3200GX firmware 3.0(1)b11p219, so unaffected models/versions and devices not exposing the management interface to the attacker are not reachable. Default or weak router credentials would materially reduce the authentication barrier in practice. |
| Impact | CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.8 (High) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, indicating a network-reachable, low-complexity command injection that requires low-privilege authentication (PR:L) but no user interaction, yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact - consistent with arbitrary OS command execution on an embedded router. Publicly available exploit code exists (GitHub advisory plus two hosted PoC files), which raises practical risk above a theoretical High. The EPSS score of 2.57% sits at the 85th percentile - elevated relative to the overall CVE population but not indicative of mass automated exploitation, suggesting opportunistic or targeted use rather than widespread campaigns at this time. There is no CISA KEV listing, so there is no confirmed active exploitation; the combination of available PoC + moderate-high EPSS percentile + low-privilege (not unauthenticated) prerequisite points to a credible but conditional threat. No SSVC decision data was provided in the input, so exploitation-status/automatable/technical-impact framing could not be cross-referenced. Key caveat: the CVSS vector specifies PR:L (authentication required), yet the description does not state what credential or access level enables the POST request - defenders should verify whether default/weak router credentials effectively lower this barrier. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with low-privilege access to the device's web/management interface (e.g., a valid or default user session) sends a crafted POST request to the module_set handler in /usr/local/lua/dev_sta/nbr_cwmp.lua, injecting shell metacharacters that are passed unsanitized to an OS command. The injected commands execute with the router's service privileges, enabling full device takeover. Publicly available PoC material lowers the skill barrier, and the low attack complexity (AC:L) means the request is reliable once the authentication prerequisite is met. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 14, 2026
Authenticated OS command injection in Ruijie X60 PRO router firmware (V1.00/V2.00, build 1.021.2014) allows an attacker holding low-privilege credentials to run arbitrary system commands via a crafted POST request to the module_set function in /usr/local/lua/dev_sta/nbr_cwmp.lua, yielding full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 3.1 8.8, AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). The same flaw is reported against Ruijie RG-EW3200GX firmware 3.0(1)b11p219. Publicly available exploit code exists (including a GitHub write-up and hosted PoC artifacts), and EPSS places the CVE at roughly 2.57% (85th percentile), so it is a realistically attractive target for exploitation once an attacker can reach the management interface, though it requires at least low-level authentication and is not confirmed as actively exploited (no CISA KEV listing).
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch with an exact fixed firmware version is identified in the available data at this time; Ruijie users should check the Ruijie support/security pages for an updated X60 PRO and RG-EW3200GX firmware and apply the first release that supersedes 1.021.2014 / 3.0(1)b11p219 as soon as it is published, and reference the vulnerability write-up at https://github.com/flegoity/Ruijie-Multiple-Devices-Vulnerability-Reports-for-CVE/blob/main/CVE-2025-56118.md to track affected models. Until a fixed build is confirmed, apply compensating controls: disable WAN-side/remote administration and any port-forwarding that exposes the router management interface to untrusted networks (this removes the AV:N attack path, at the cost of losing remote management), rotate all default and weak administrator credentials and use unique strong passwords because PR:L is the only authentication barrier and default credentials would effectively lower it (side effect: credential rotation requires updating stored configs/scripts), restrict management access to a trusted LAN/VLAN or specific administrative source IPs via ACLs, and segment the router from sensitive internal networks so that successful command execution cannot pivot further. Because publicly available exploit code exists, monitor router logs and outbound traffic for command-injection indicators and anomalous processes, and treat any unpatched device reachable from an untrusted network as compromised until verified.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Ruijie X60 PRO is an embedded wireless router whose web/management stack is partly implemented in Lua. The affected component, /usr/local/lua/dev_sta/nbr_cwmp.lua, relates to TR-069/CWMP (CPE WAN Management Protocol) neighbor/station handling, and its module_set routine passes request-derived data into a shell invocation without adequate neutralization - the classic CWE-78 OS Command Injection pattern in which untrusted input is concatenated into a command line executed by the underlying Linux shell. Because the vector is AV:N with AC:L, a single POST request over the network is sufficient to inject commands; PR:L indicates the endpoint is gated behind at least a low-privilege authenticated session, and UI:N confirms no victim interaction is needed. The CPE data pins the affected code to Ruijie X60 PRO firmware versions 1.021.2014 and RG-EW3200GX firmware 3.0(1)b11p219, meaning only devices running these specific firmware builds (or equivalent code paths) are in scope; other models or updated builds are not covered by the available evidence.

DescriptionCVE.org
OS Command Injection vulnerability in Ruijie X60 PRO X60_10212014RG-X60 PRO V1.00/V2.00 allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted POST request to the module_set in file /usr/local/lua/dev_sta/nbr_cwmp.lua.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using Ruijie X60 PRO (firmware V1.00/V2.00 build 1.021.2014) or RG-EW3200GX (firmware 3.0(1)b11p219) routers face a high-severity command injection flaw that, once an attacker obtains any low-privilege credentials, allows full control of the device. Although no vendor patch is available and publicly available exploit code exists, the requirement for authentication reduces the immediate risk of mass exploitation, yet a compromised router can serve as a pivot point for network-wide attacks, data interception, and service disruption. Leadership should prioritize access restrictions and monitoring for these devices to protect critical network infrastructure.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include restricting management interface access to trusted networks, disabling remote management and CWMP if not needed, enforcing strong credentials and least privilege, segmenting affected routers from critical assets, enabling logging and monitoring for exploitation attempts, and applying vendor workarounds as available.
