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
AP180 series with firmware versions prior to AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 contains an OS command injection vulnerability. If this vulnerability is exploited, arbitrary commands may be executed on the devices.

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

The AP180 series network devices contain an OS command injection vulnerability in firmware versions prior to AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8. This allows authenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary operating system commands on the affected devices through the vulnerable firmware component.

MitigationUpgrade AP180 series devices to firmware version AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 or later to remediate the command injection vulnerability.

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. Confirm device is AP180 series
    Check the device model through CLI command 'show version' or via the web UI system information page
    Affected if Device model does not start with AP180
  2. Check installed firmware version
    Run 'show version' in CLI or view system status in web UI to retrieve the firmware version string (format: AP_RGOS X.X(X)BX)
    Affected if Unable to retrieve firmware version string
  3. Compare version against affected range
    Parse the firmware version. Versions prior to AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 are affected (including 11.9(4)B1, 11.9(3), 11.9(2), 11.9(1), earlier releases)
    Affected if Installed version is earlier than AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 (e.g., 11.9(4)B1, 11.9(3), etc.)
  4. Verify remote management accessibility
    Check if web-based or CLI management interfaces are exposed to network (review interface configurations, management VLAN settings, or access control lists)
    Affected if Management interface is reachable from untrusted networks (exploitation requires authenticated access)

Device is affected if it is an AP180 series model running firmware version earlier than AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 with accessible management interfaces

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade AP180 series devices to firmware version AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 or later to remediate the command injection vulnerability.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 or later

  1. 1. Identify the current firmware version of the Ruijie AP180 series device by accessing the web management interface or using the CLI command 'show version'
  2. 2. Navigate to the official Ruijie support website (www.ruijie.co.jp or global Ruijie networks support) and locate the firmware download section for AP180 series access points
  3. 3. Download the firmware version AP_RGOS 11.9(4)B1P8 or any later stable release
  4. 4. Access the device management interface, navigate to the firmware upgrade section, and upload the downloaded firmware file
  5. 5. Wait for the upgrade process to complete and the device to reboot automatically
  6. 6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the firmware version again and confirming it shows 11.9(4)B1P8 or later
