CVE-2026-5509 is an authenticated command injection vulnerability affecting TP-Link Archer BE450 v1 and Archer BE7200 v1 routers. The flaw resides in the web management interface, where crafted input supplied by an authenticated administrator can be passed to backend system command execution without adequate sanitization. The described exploitation path involves using the browser developer console to submit malicious input through the administrative interface. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary system command execution with elevated privileges on the device, creating a path to full compromise of the router operating environment.
