About Qntmnet Qn-I-470 Firmware
CVE-2026-41036 affects Qntmnet Qn-I-470 Firmware, a product from Qntmnet. Before acting, confirm where Qntmnet Qn-I-470 Firmware runs in your estate, who owns it and whether it is reachable from the internet, because exposure decides real risk more than the score alone.
What the flaw is
In plain terms: This vulnerability exists in Quantum Networks router due to inadequate sanitization of user-supplied input in the management CLI interface. An authenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary OS commands on the targeted device. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow the attacker to perform remote code execution with root privileges on the targeted device.
The weakness class is OS Command Injection. Untrusted input is passed to the operating system shell, letting an attacker run commands.
Based on its CVSS vector, the flaw can be reached over the network, needs some level of access, and needs no user interaction. Apply the vendor fix and confirm exposure on internet facing and business critical assets first.

How to detect it
- Inventory every instance of Qntmnet Qn-I-470 Firmware and record the running version against the affected range above.
- Check external attack surface scans for internet facing instances of the component.
- Review logs on affected systems for unusual requests, errors or new processes around the vulnerable function.
- Confirm with an authenticated vulnerability scan once your scanner has a check for this CVE.
How to fix it
- Apply the fixed version of Qntmnet Qn-I-470 Firmware named in the vendor advisory.
- If patching must wait, restrict network access to the affected service and put it behind authentication or a web application firewall rule.
- Rescan after the change to prove the exposure is gone, then close the ticket.

This vulnerability exists in Quantum Networks router due to improper access control and insecure default configuration in the web-based management interface. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by accessing exposed API endpoints on the targeted device. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow the attacker to access sensitive information, including internal endpoints, scripts and directories on the targeted device.
This vulnerability exists in Quantum Networks router due to lack of enforcement of strong password policies in the web-based management interface. An attacker on the same network could exploit this vulnerability by performing password guessing or brute-force attacks against user accounts, leading to unauthorized access to the targeted device.
This vulnerability exists in Quantum Networks router due to missing rate limiting and CAPTCHA protection for failed login attempts in the web-based management interface. An attacker on the same network could exploit this vulnerability by performing brute force attacks against administrative credentials, leading to unauthorized access with root privileges on the targeted device.
WeGIA is a web manager for charitable institutions. Prior to version 3.6.5, a critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in the WeGIA application's database restoration functionality. An attacker with administrative access (which can be obtained via the previously reported Authentication Bypass) can execute arbitrary OS commands on the server by uploading a backup file with a specifically crafted filename. Version 3.6.5 fixes the issue.
PDF Export Module used in DHTMLX's products Gantt and Scheduler is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution due to lack of "data" parameter sanitization. An unauthenticated attacker can inject the malicious JavaScript code to the parameter whose value is processed by Node.js and subsequently executed. This can lead to server compromise. This issue was fixed in PDF Export Module version 0.7.6.
TinyWeb is a web server (HTTP, HTTPS) written in Delphi for Win32. TinyWeb HTTP Server before version 1.98 is vulnerable to OS command injection via CGI ISINDEX-style query parameters. The query parameters are passed as command-line arguments to the CGI executable via Windows CreateProcess(). An unauthenticated remote attacker can execute arbitrary commands on the server by injecting Windows shell metacharacters into HTTP requests. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.98.
