In short

Yealink Device Management allows attackers to run commands with root privileges without logging in, through a specific web address. This lets attackers take complete control of the device.

Technical detail

An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject arbitrary OS commands via the /sm/api/v1/firewall/zone/services endpoint in Yealink DM 3.6.0.20, resulting in code execution with root privileges. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation on user-supplied parameters passed to system command execution functions (CWE-78 OS Command Injection).
