A vulnerability was found in DrayTek Vigor2960, Vigor3900 and Vigor300B (Router Operating System) (the affected version is unknown). It has been rated as very critical. This issue affects an unknown code of the file cgi-bin/mainfunction.cgi. The manipulation as part of a Shell Metacharacter leads to a injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-74. The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

DrayTek Vigor2960 1.3.1_Beta; Vigor3900 1.4.4_Beta; and Vigor300B 1.3.3_Beta, 1.4.2.1_Beta, and 1.4.4_Beta devices allow remote code execution as root (without authentication) via shell metacharacters to the cgi-bin/mainfunction.cgi URI.

The weakness was published 02/01/2020. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2020-8515 since 02/01/2020. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Technical details as well as a exploit are known.
