This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject and execute arbitrary commands on the underlying system. The vulnerability, identified as CVE-2026-6987, stems from improper neutralization of special elements in the input to the \u003ccode\u003e/api/gateway/restart\u003c/code\u003e function. The project maintainers were notified through an issue report, but as of the time of disclosure, no response or patch has been released.
