CVE-2026-6644· NVD / CVE Program· CNA ASUSTOR1

A command injection vulnerability was found in the PPTP VPN Clients on the ADM

A command injection vulnerability was found in the PPTP VPN Clients on the ADM. The vulnerability allows an administrative user to break out of the restricted web environment and execute arbitrary code on the underlying operating system. This occurs due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input before it is passed to a system shell. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) and fully compromise the system. Affected products and versions include: from ADM 4.1.0 through ADM 4.3.3.RR42 as well as from ADM 5.0.0 through ADM 5.1.2.REO1.

Root cause

User input is inserted as text into a shell command. The shell may interpret special characters in the input as part of the command.
