Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in ON Semiconductor Quantenna Wi-Fi Chipset up to 8.0.0.28. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects an unknown part of the file router_command.sh. The manipulation of the argument get_file_from_qtn with an unknown input leads to a argument injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-88. The product constructs a string for a command to be executed by a separate component in another control sphere, but it does not properly delimit the intended arguments, options, or switches within that command string. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

The Quantenna Wi-Fi chipset ships with a local control script, router_command.sh (in the get_file_from_qtn argument), that is vulnerable to command injection. This is an instance of CWE-88, "Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command ('Argument Injection')," and is estimated as a CVSS 7.7 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N). This issue affects Quantenna Wi-Fi chipset through version 8.0.0.28 of the latest SDK, and appears to be unpatched at the time of this CVE record's first publishing, though the vendor has released a best practices guide for implementors of this chipset.

The weakness was published by Ricky Lawshae. The advisory is available at takeonme.org. This vulnerability was named CVE-2025-32457 since 04/09/2025. The exploitation appears to be easy.
