Summary

TRENDnet TEW-751DR, TEW-752DRU and TEW733GR routers from 1.03B01 and 1.03B03 have an OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) in the fwrite function of pigwidgeon.cgi. The service argument is not neutralized before it reaches OS commands, so a remote attacker needs no credentials or user action to run commands. A public exploit is linked in the references. The vendor says these products are end of life.
