The vendor confirms, that "[t]he product in question (...) has been discontinued and end of life since June 23, 2011, that is more than 14 years ago.

We will make an announcement on our website's product support page and notify customers who registered their products with us." This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
A command injection vulnerability has been identified in the Trendnet TEW-657BRM router, specifically in version 1.00.1. The issue arises in the VPN connect function within the setup.cgi file, where the policy_name parameter is improperly sanitized before being passed to the system command execution function. This flaw allows remote attackers to inject and execute arbitrary commands on the operating system level. The vulnerability is particularly concerning as the product has been discontinued and unsupported since 2011, leaving users without any official guidance or patches.
