Developed by security researcher Mike Grover (MG), the OMG Cable is a sophisticated penetration testing tool designed to mimic ordinary charging cables while secretly functioning as a remote access device. Unlike traditional USB-based attacks that require victims to download malware, OMG Cables embed malicious hardware within the cable itself.

CWE-77 refers to the improper neutralisation of special elements used in a command. These special elements, when inadequately sanitised, allow attackers to inject malicious commands that the system interprets and executes. This vulnerability commonly appears in applications that dynamically construct system commands based on user inputs.
Out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities (CWE-787) are among the most dangerous weaknesses in software development. If left unchecked, these vulnerabilities can have significant repercussions, including data corruption, service outages, and, in the worst cases, remote code execution.
An out-of-bounds write occurs when a program writes data outside the bounds of allocated memory, causing code compromise in the software.
OpenWRT, while highly customisable, is not immune to the common security flaws that affect embedded devices. These can range from default configurations to poorly secured web interfaces
