Impact
A vulnerability in Edimax BR-6675nD router firmware 1.12 allows an attacker to send a crafted POST request to the /goform/formWpsStart endpoint, manipulating the pinCode argument. This flaw enables command injection, giving the attacker the ability to execute arbitrary operating‑system commands on the device. The resulting compromise affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the router and any network resources connected to it. The weakness is characterized by CWE-74 and CWE-77, reflecting command and OS command injection respectively.
Affected Systems
The affected product is the Edimax BR-6675nD router, model BR-6675nD, running firmware version 1.12. No other vendors or products are listed as impacted.
Risk and Exploitability
The vulnerability scores a CVSS of 5.3, placing it in the medium severity range. EPSS score of 1% indicates a low exploitation probability, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but public exploits have already been released. The attack vector is remote, relying on HTTP POST access to the formWpsStart endpoint; an attacker who can reach the device over the network can initiate the attack without additional prerequisites.
