CVE-2021-27561 is an unauthenticated command injection vulnerability in Yealink Device Management (DM) version 3.6.0.20. The flaw is exposed through the /sm/api/v1/firewall/zone/services URI and allows attacker-supplied input to be interpreted by the underlying operating system. Successful exploitation results in execution of arbitrary system commands with root privileges, without requiring prior authentication. The vulnerability was rapidly incorporated into Mirai-based exploitation activity shortly after public disclosure, indicating that internet-exposed instances were readily targetable for remote compromise.
