DescriptionCVE.org

MSI Radix AXE6600 router firmware version v781521 contains a command injection vulnerability in the urlfilter function that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the affected device. Attackers can exploit the urlfilter function to inject malicious commands and obtain root privileges on the underlying system.

AnalysisAI

Remote command injection in the MSI Radix AXE6600 WiFi 6E gaming router (firmware v781521) lets network-reachable attackers inject arbitrary OS commands through the router's urlfilter function and gain root on the device. The flaw (CWE-78) is unauthenticated per the CVSS 4.0 vector and was reported by VulnCheck; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though full device takeover is the demonstrated impact. A vendor patch is available per the MSI support advisory.

Technical ContextAI

The affected component is the urlfilter function in MSI's Radix AXE6600 router firmware - a URL-filtering/parental-control feature typical of consumer/prosumer WiFi routers, which passes user-supplied input into an underlying shell or system() call on the embedded Linux platform. The root cause is CWE-78 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command): the urlfilter handler fails to sanitize or escape shell metacharacters before incorporating attacker-controlled data into a command executed by the router's OS. The single affected CPE, cpe:2.3:a:msi:radix_axe6600, confirms the vulnerability is scoped to the AXE6600 firmware application layer, and because router web/management daemons commonly run as root, successful injection yields full root-level command execution on the device.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory - apply the firmware update offered by MSI on the RadiX AXE6600 support page (https://us.msi.com/Networking/RadiX-AXE6600-WiFi-6E-Tri-Band-Gaming-Router/support); no exact fixed firmware version was provided in the input, so verify the specific patched build against MSI's release notes before deployment. Until the update is applied, reduce exposure by ensuring the router's web/management interface and any remote-administration feature are not reachable from the WAN (disable remote management), restricting access to the management interface to a trusted admin VLAN or a small set of admin hosts, and avoiding use of the urlfilter/URL-filtering feature where practical - noting the trade-off that disabling URL filtering removes any parental-control/content-filtering protection it provided. Consult the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/msi-radix-axe6600-v781521-command-injection-via-urlfilter) for detailed technical guidance.
