Description
The affected device expose a network service called "rftest" that is vulnerable to unauthenticated command injection on ports TCP/8888, TCP/8889, and TCP/8890. By successfully exploiting this flaw, remote unauthenticated attacker can gain arbitrary command execution on the device with elevated privileges.This issue affects Archer C4500X: through 1_1.1.6.
