Unauthenticated Command Injection in Netis Router


This week’s Metasploit release includes an exploit module for an unauthenticated command injection vulnerability in the Netis MW5360 router which is being tracked as CVE-2024-22729.

The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the password parameter within the router’s web interface which allows for command injection. Fortunately for attackers, the router’s login page authorization can be bypassed by simply deleting the authorization header, leading to the vulnerability. All router firmware versions up to V1.0.1.3442 are vulnerable.
