CVE-2026-13560
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 · uneditedA security vulnerability has been detected in Edimax EW-7478APC 1.04. The affected element is the function formAccept of the file /goform/formAccept of the component POST Request Handler. The manipulation of the argument submit-url leads to os command injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
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 confidenceOS command injection vulnerability in Edimax EW-7478APC 1.04 router firmware. The formAccept function in /goform/formAccept POST handler fails to properly sanitize the submit-url parameter, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary OS commands remotely.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify device modelAccess the router web interface or check the device label/sticker for the model number EW-7478APC. Alternatively, check DHCP logs or network scan results for this specific model identifier.Affected if Device is not an Edimax EW-7478APC router - the vulnerability does not apply to other models.
-
Check firmware versionLog into the router web interface and navigate to System Status or Firmware Upgrade page to view the firmware version. The affected version is 1.04.Affected if Firmware version is 1.04 - this is the only version listed as affected in the provided data.
-
Verify web interface is enabledAttempt to access the router's HTTP administration interface on the default IP (typically 192.168.2.1). The vulnerability requires the web-based management interface to be active.Affected if The web management interface returns a login page or responds to HTTP requests - the command injection targets this web handler.
-
Confirm vulnerable endpoint existsSend a POST request to /goform/formAccept with a test parameter. The vulnerability is in the formAccept POST handler processing the submit-url parameter.Affected if The /goform/formAccept endpoint responds to POST requests - this is the vulnerable handler.
-
Assess network exposureDetermine if the router management interface is accessible from untrusted networks (WAN/internet). Check port forwarding rules, firewall configurations, or if the device is directly exposed to the internet.Affected if The router's web interface is accessible from the WAN/internet - the vulnerability is remotely exploitable.
A user is affected if they are running Edimax EW-7478APC firmware version 1.04 with the web management interface enabled and accessible, particularly if exposed to untrusted networks.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataSince Edimax did not respond to disclosure, no vendor patch exists. Mitigation requires network access restrictions (firewall/ACLs) to limit exposure, or replacement with a supported device. If继续使用，需进行固件逆向工程以实施输入验证修补。
