OS command injection in the exportOvpn handler of the TOTOLINK X5000R router firmware (9.1.0cu.2089_B20211224 and potentially other versions) allows an authenticated web-UI user to inject shell metacharacters through the 'filetype' argument supplied to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi?action=exportOvpn&type=user, resulting in commands executed with the privileges of the underlying CGI process. The flaw is remotely reachable (CVSS 4.0 AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) and publicly available exploit code exists, so any X5000R with an exposed or weakly-credentialed management interface should be treated as at risk. Impact per the supplied vector is limited (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) but on an embedded device a successful injection typically yields full control of the appliance and its configuration.
