Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Smartbedded MeteoBridge: through 6.1

## Description

The Meteobridge web interface let meteobridge administrator manage their weather station data collection and administer their meteobridge system through a web application written in CGI shell scripts and C. This web interface exposes an endpoint that is vulnerable to command injection. Remote unauthenticated attackers can gain arbitrary command execution with elevated privileges ( root ) on affected devices.
