4DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in Edimax EW-7478APC 1.04. Affected by this vulnerability is the function setWAN of the file /goform/setWAN. Executing a manipulation of the argument pppUserName/pptpUserName/L2TPUserName can lead to command injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been published and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Command injection in Edimax EW-7478APC firmware 1.04 enables remote attackers with low-privilege access to execute arbitrary OS commands by supplying shell metacharacters in WAN credential fields (pppUserName, pptpUserName, or L2TPUserName) through the /goform/setWAN endpoint. A publicly available proof-of-concept exploit has been published, raising real-world exploitation risk despite the moderate CVSS score. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The /goform/setWAN management endpoint must be network-reachable by the attacker - this is typically the device's LAN-side or management-side web interface, not necessarily exposed to the internet unless remote management is enabled. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/E:P) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring only low-privilege authentication with a confirmed public exploit. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
