What is CVE-2025-60689?

CVE-2025-60689 is a medium-severity command injection vulnerability in n/a, published on 13 Nov 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

An unauthenticated command injection vulnerability exists in the Start_EPI function of the httpd binary on Linksys E1200 v2 routers (Firmware E1200_v2.0.11.001_us.tar.gz). The vulnerability occurs because user-supplied CGI parameters (wl_ant, wl_ssid, wl_rate, ttcp_num, ttcp_ip, ttcp_size) are concatenated into system command strings without proper sanitization and executed via wl_exec_cmd. Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the device without authentication.
