Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Trend Micro Threat Discovery Appliance versions 2.6.1062r1 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code as the root user. This is achieved by using shell metacharacters in the cache id parameter of the log query.cgi endpoint.
