An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the Edimax EW-7438RPn firmware version 1.13 and prior via the mp.asp form handler. The /goform/mp endpoint improperly handles user-supplied input to the command parameter. An authenticated attacker can inject shell commands using shell metacharacters to achieve arbitrary command execution as the root user.
The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly.
