Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the portal.cgi component's password change functionality. The application improperly neutralizes special elements in the http_passwd_hidden and http_passwdConfirm_hidden parameters, allowing an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with root privileges.This issue has been fixed in firmware version 1.1.0.651412
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in the WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router's portal.cgi password-change function allows an attacker who already holds high-privilege portal credentials and is positioned on the adjacent network to run arbitrary operating-system commands as root, yielding full device compromise (CVSS 4.0 base 9.3). The root cause is improper neutralization of shell metacharacters in the http_passwd_hidden and http_passwdConfirm_hidden parameters, so a crafted password-change request is interpreted by the underlying shell rather than treated as inert input. …

| Exploitation | Exploitation requires: (1) network reachability to the device's management portal (CVSS AV:A indicates adjacent/local-network access, i.e. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.3 (AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) is driven by full compromise impact (root code execution) but is tempered by two real limiters that keep this below a drive-by internet worm scenario: AV:A means the attacker must be on the adjacent/local network (the router's LAN/management side, not the public internet), and PR:H means valid high-privilege portal credentials are required first. … 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 | Vendor-released patch: upgrade the T-Mobile 5G Box IDU to firmware version 1.1.0.651412 (or later), which resolves the portal.cgi parameter-handling flaw; consult the CERT-PL advisory at https://cert.pl/posts/2026/09/CVE-2026-40854 and the device vendor for the firmware image and update procedure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory every WNC T-Mobile 5G Box IDU router in the estate and flag any unit running firmware below 1.1.0.651412; confirm that administrator portal access is restricted to trusted staff, rotate administrative credentials on any exposed units, and verify the management interface is not reachable from untrusted network segments. …
