Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-11-18 15:26

On ASUS RT-AX55 3.0.0.4.386.51598 devices, authenticated attackers can perform OS command injection via the /start_apply.htm qos_bw_rulelist parameter. NOTE: for the similar "token-generated module" issue, see CVE-2023-41345; for the similar "token-refresh module" issue, see CVE-2023-41346; for the similar "check token module" issue, see CVE-2023-41347; and for the similar "code-authentication module" issue, see CVE-2023-41348. ASUS RT-AX55 is a dual-band Wi-Fi router from the Chinese company ASUS. This vulnerability is caused by the application's failure to properly filter special characters, commands, etc. in constructed commands. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause arbitrary command execution
