Of course, because there was no such API for WAF apps in any firmware up to (and including) current 5.3.2.1. WAF apps are essentially sandboxed and stock sandbox relaxing facets ("features") didn't and doesn't include process launching.
I've answered you in WAF hints thread about how you could take
silver18's way for communication with outside and change it in try to trick system daemon to execute arbitrary shell script.
