Summary

An authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in PowerStick Wave Dual-Band Wifi Extender V1.0 allows an attacker with valid credentials to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges. The issue stems from insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input in the /cgi-bin/cgi_vista.cgi executable, which is passed to a system-level function call.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with valid credentials can gain full control over the device, potentially compromising network confidentiality and integrity, and enabling further attacks on the infrastructure.

Recommendation

Immediately update the device firmware to the latest version if a patch is available. In the meantime, restrict administrative access to trusted networks only and use strong, unique passwords.
