Command Injection Vulnerability in Motorola Network Devices

CVE-2019-9121

Summary

A vulnerability has been identified in Motorola C1 and M2 devices, where untrusted input can be exploited due to improper handling of data sent via the HNAP API. Specifically, an attacker may craft a malicious POST request targeting the SetSmartQoSSettings function, allowing them to execute arbitrary operating system commands. This occurs because user-controlled input is directly passed to the system function without rigorous validation, enabling remote code execution and potentially leading to a complete compromise of the device's control.
