This allows attackers to inject arbitrary OS commands into the username parameter. Injected commands are executed with root privileges.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The security flaw was disclosed by Forescout Research Vedere Labs in April 2026 as part of a broader set of vulnerabilities collectively codenamed BRIDGE:BREAK that impacted serial-to-IP converters from Lantronix and Silex.
