CVE-2023-36498

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.2)—

A post-authentication command injection vulnerability exists in the PPTP client functionality of Tp-Link ER7206 Omada Gigabit VPN Router 1.3.0 build 20230322 Rel.70591. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to arbitrary command injection. An attacker can make an authenticated HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability and gain access to an unrestricted shell.
