Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
CVE-2025-11730
Summary
A post‑authentication command injection vulnerability in the Dynamic DNS (DDNS) configuration CLI command in Zyxel ATP series firmware versions from V5.35 through V5.41, USG FLEX series firmware versions from V5.35 through V5.41, USG FLEX 50(W) series firmware versions from V5.35 through V5.41, and USG20(W)-VPN series firmware versions from V5.35 through V5.41 could allow an authenticated attacker with administrator privileges to execute operating system (OS) commands on an affected device by supplying a specially crafted string as an argument to the CLI command.

CWE-78 - OS Command Injection
The OS command injection weakness (also known as shell injection) is a vulnerability which enables an attacker to run arbitrary OS commands on a server. This is done by modifying the intended downstream OS command and injecting arbitrary commands, enabling the execution of unauthorized OS commands. This has the potential to fully compromise the application along with all of its data, and, if the compromised process does not follow the principle of least privileges, it may compromise other parts of the hosting infrastructure as well. This weakness is listed as number ten in the 'CWE Top 25 Most Dangerous Software Weaknesses'.
