CVE-2017-5255
HighSummary
In version 3.5 and prior of Cambium Networks ePMP firmware, a lack of input sanitation for certain parameters on the web management console allows authenticated users, including low-privilege readonly users, to inject shell meta-characters via a specially-crafted POST request to the get_chart function and execute OS-level commands as root.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability allows attackers to execute commands at the OS level with root privileges, potentially leading to severe security breaches within the organization.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update the firmware to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability and implement additional security measures to restrict access to the management console.

Original NVD description (English source)
In version 3.5 and prior of Cambium Networks ePMP firmware, a lack of input sanitation for certain parameters on the web management console allows any authenticated user (including the otherwise low-privilege readonly user) to inject shell meta-characters as part of a specially-crafted POST request to the get_chart function and run OS-level commands, effectively as root.
