DescriptionCVE.org

WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router is vulnerable to a command injection. The vulnerability exists in the ping functionality within the /cgi-bin/portal.cgi endpoint, specifically affecting the ping_ip, ping_size, and ping_times POST parameters. The root cause is the failure to verify and sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating it into a system command. This allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the shell and gain root access to the system.This issue has been fixed in firmware version 1.1.0.651412

AnalysisAI

Authenticated OS command injection in the WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router's web management portal lets an admin-level attacker on the adjacent network run arbitrary shell commands as root. The flaw (CWE-78) sits in the ping diagnostic feature of /cgi-bin/portal.cgi, where the ping_ip, ping_size, and ping_times POST parameters are concatenated into a system command without validation or sanitization; no user interaction is required once credentials are held. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires (1) network reachability to the router's web management interface, which is adjacent/local per AV:A rather than internet-facing, and (2) valid authenticated (admin-level, PR:H) access to the device portal. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a CWE-78 OS command injection in the ping diagnostic feature of the WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router's web portal (/cgi-bin/portal.cgi), yielding root code execution. … 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 Upgrade the T-Mobile 5G Box IDU to firmware version 1.1.0.651412, which is the vendor-released patch that fixes the command injection in the /cgi-bin/portal.cgi ping handler (patch available from the vendor; see the CERT-PL advisory at https://cert.pl/posts/2026/09/CVE-2026-40854 and the EUVD entry EUVD-2026-80670). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU routers and confirm which run firmware below 1.1.0.651412; restrict access to the web management portal to trusted management VLANs or local admin workstations only, disable remote or adjacent portal exposure where not required, and validate that only authorized high-privilege accounts can reach /cgi-bin/portal.cgi. …
