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
home 5G HR02 and Wi-Fi STATION SH-54C contain an OS command injection vulnerability in the configuration restore function. An arbitrary OS command may be executed with the root privilege by an administrative user.

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 configuration restore function of home 5G HR02 and Wi-Fi STATION SH-54C routers/mobile hotspots. An authenticated administrative user can execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges due to insufficient input sanitization in the config restore feature.

MitigationRestrict administrative interface access to trusted IP addresses only, apply vendor firmware updates when available, and implement network segmentation to limit exposure. If no patch exists, consider compensating controls such as disabling remote admin access and monitoring for indicators of compromise.

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 device model
    Locate the device label or access the admin web interface (typically at 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1) to confirm the model number is either home 5G HR02 or Wi-Fi STATION SH-54C
    Affected if Device is either HR02 or SH-54C model
  2. Check firmware version
    In the router admin interface, navigate to Settings or System Information to view the installed firmware version. Compare against any available vendor firmware release notes
    Affected if Firmware version is unpatched (no official patch version specified)
  3. Verify config restore feature accessibility
    Access the router admin panel and locate the Configuration Backup/Restore or Settings Import function. Determine if this feature is exposed to the network or only accessible via local admin interface
    Affected if Config restore feature is accessible remotely or via web interface without additional network restrictions
  4. Confirm remote administrative access status
    In router settings, check if Remote Management, Remote Administration, or TR-069 settings are enabled. Look for options allowing admin access from WAN/internet
    Affected if Remote admin access is enabled, allowing potential authenticated attackers to reach the vulnerability
  5. Inspect for indicators of compromise
    Review router system logs or traffic logs for unexpected configuration restore events, unusual scheduled tasks, or commands executed around the time of suspected exploitation
    Affected if Unexpected config restore events appear in logs or unknown processes are running with elevated privileges

A user is affected if they operate an HR02 or SH-54C device with the config restore feature accessible to unauthenticated or weakly-protected administrative interfaces, especially if remote admin access is enabled.
