The application constructs a shell command using unsanitized user input passed to the system() function, calling an external binary for authentication. Due to improper input handling and reliance on the binary's return value for access control, an attacker can inject special characters, such as a double quote (") to manipulate command parsing and induce execution failure. Since the application interprets any non-zero exit code from the binary as successful authentication, this flaw allows remote users to bypass authentication entirely without providing valid credentials.
