Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions EdgeSwitch versions prior to 1.7.1

Description A privilege escalation issue exists due to insufficient sanitization of user input by a CGI script, allowing local command execution. This enables an operator user to escalate privileges from Privilege-1 to Privilege-15, effectively becoming an administrator.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.7.1, update to version 1.7.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the CGI script to minimize the risk of exploitation.
