Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
OS command injection vulnerability in GUI setting page of CentreCOM AR260S V2 firmware versions prior to Ver.3.3.7 allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute an arbitrary OS command.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

OS command injection vulnerability in the GUI setting page of CentreCOM AR260S V2 router firmware allows remote authenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary operating system commands through unsanitized input fields in the web management interface.

MitigationUpgrade firmware to Ver.3.3.7 or later. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, restrict administrative access to the web interface to trusted/internal IP addresses only to reduce attack surface.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the device model
    Access the router's web management interface and locate the system status or device information page to confirm the model is CentreCOM AR260S
    Affected if The device is an CentreCOM AR260S V2 router
  2. Check the installed firmware version
    In the web management interface, navigate to the firmware or system information page and note the displayed firmware version number
    Affected if The firmware version is lower than 3.3.7 (for example, 3.3.6, 3.3.5, etc.)
  3. Confirm the web management interface is accessible
    Attempt to access the router's web GUI by entering the device IP address in a web browser
    Affected if The web management interface is reachable from the network being tested
  4. Verify remote administrative access is enabled
    In the web management interface, check the administrative access or remote management settings to determine if remote web access is permitted
    Affected if Remote administrative access to the web interface is enabled for external or untrusted IP addresses

The environment is affected if the device is a CentreCOM AR260S with firmware version lower than 3.3.7 and the web management interface is accessible with administrative credentials.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 3.3.7 or later
Fixed in 3.3.7
Interim mitigation

Upgrade firmware to Ver.3.3.7 or later. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, restrict administrative access to the web interface to trusted/internal IP addresses only to reduce attack surface.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Firmware Ver.3.3.7

  1. Obtain the official firmware version 3.3.7 or later for CentreCOM AR260S from the Allied Telesis support website (www.allied-telesis.co.jp)
