Title
Inconsistent input filtering allows Authenticated Command Injection in AOS-10 CLI
Summary
A vulnerability in the configuration processing logic of Access Points running AOS-10 could allow an authenticated remote attacker to execute system commands under certain pre-existing conditions. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system.
Note: Access Points running AOS-8 Instant software are not affected by this vulnerability.
