What is CVE-2022-28373?

The Verizon 5G Home Indoor Unit version 3.4.66.162 is susceptible to a remote code execution vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-controlled parameters in the crtcreadpartition function of its JSON listener. An attacker with local network access could exploit this flaw by injecting shell metacharacters, potentially allowing them to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges. This poses a significant security risk, as it could compromise the integrity and availability of the device.
