An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-3955 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linksys ESeries E1200. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-3955/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-3955/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-3955","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-3955/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-3955","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v2p8-7jjc-gfv9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linksys router","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary system commands via the Domain Name field in Linksys E-Series routers, gaining full device control.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"talos","cpe":[{"product":"e1200_firmware","vendor":"linksys"},{"product":"e2500_firmware","vendor":"linksys"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"An exploitable operating system command injection exists in the Linksys ESeries line of routers (Linksys E1200 Firmware Version 2.0.09 and Linksys E2500 Firmware Version 3.0.04). Specially crafted entries to network configuration information can cause execution of arbitrary system commands, resulting in full control of the device. An attacker can send an authenticated HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.

The wan_domain data goes through the nvram_set process described above.
