Summary

A command injection vulnerability exists in the Linksys E2000 router firmware version 1.0.06. When an attacker gains unauthorized web management access, they can exploit this flaw by injecting malicious commands into the post request parameters including wl_ssid, wl_ant, wl_rate, WL_atten_ctl, ttcp_num, and ttcp_size via the httpd Start_EPI() function. This allows the attacker to execute commands with shell privileges, potentially compromising the router and the network it serves.
