Description

A command injection vulnerability in the access point (AP) management feature of the Zyxel ATP series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36 Patch 2, USG FLEX series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36 Patch 2, USG FLEX 50(W) series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36 Patch 2, USG20(W)-VPN series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36 Patch 2, VPN series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36 Patch 2, NXC2500 firmware versions 6.10(AAIG.0) through 6.10(AAIG.3), and NXC5500 firmware versions 6.10(AAOS.0) through 6.10(AAOS.4), could allow an unauthenticated, LAN-based attacker to execute some OS commands on an affected device if the attacker could trick an authorized administrator to add their IP address to the managed AP list in advance.
