CVE-2025-67038Lantronix EDS5000 — command injection in the login handler

Lantronix device servers (EDS5000) build a shell command out of the username when a login fails, without cleaning it first. Anyone who can reach the web interface can append their own commands, which the device runs as root.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Apply Lantronix's firmware fix per CISA advisory ICSA-26-069-02; until then keep EDS5000 units off routable networks and behind a jump host.
