CVE-2010-5330 is actively exploited and listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, added April 15, 2022. EIP tracks 1 public exploit from researchers including emgent.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit demonstrates a remote command execution vulnerability in Ubiquity Nanostation5 (Air OS) via the 'stainfo.cgi' endpoint. The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands by injecting them into the 'ifname' parameter, leading to information disclosure such as reading the system configuration file.

Description

On certain Ubiquiti devices, Command Injection exists via a GET request to stainfo.cgi (aka Show AP info) because the ifname variable is not sanitized, as demonstrated by shell metacharacters. The fixed version is v4.0.1 for 802.11 ISP products, v5.3.5 for AirMax ISP products, and v5.4.5 for AirSync firmware. For example, Nanostation5 (Air OS) is affected.
