Description
A command injection vulnerability may be exploited after the admin's authentication in the VPN Connection Service on the Archer BE230 v1.2Β  and Archer AXE75 v1.0. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to gain full administrative control of the device, resulting in severe compromise of configuration integrity, network security, and service availability. This CVE covers one of multiple distinct OS command injection issues identified across separate code paths. Although similar in nature, each instance is tracked under a unique CVE ID. This issue affects Archer BE230 v1.2 < 1.2.4 Build 20251218 rel.70420Β and Archer AXE v1.0Β < 1.5.3 Build 20260209 rel. 71108.

What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?

To mitigate this vulnerability, you should upgrade the Archer BE230 device firmware to version 1.2.4 Build 20251218 rel.70420 or later, as this version addresses the command injection issue. Additionally, restrict administrative access to trusted users only and monitor for any unauthorized administrative activity.


Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is a command injection issue in the VPN Connection Service on the Archer BE230 v1.2 devices before version 1.2.4. After an admin authenticates, an attacker could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary OS commands on the device. This could lead to the attacker gaining full administrative control over the device.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to take full administrative control of the affected device. This can severely compromise the device's configuration integrity, network security, and availability of services, potentially disrupting network operations and exposing sensitive data.
