Summary

TP-Link AXE75 V1 routers have an OS command injection vulnerability in the VPN module. An adjacent authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary commands by importing a specially crafted VPN client configuration file. The issue is due to improper filtering of special characters.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can gain full control of the router, enabling configuration modification, network security compromise, and service disruption. This could lead to traffic interception or attacks on other devices.

Recommendation

Update the router firmware to the latest version. Restrict administrative access to trusted users and avoid importing VPN configurations from untrusted sources.
