Adjacent unauthenticated data access and modification
Published Apr 22, 2020 · Updated Aug 5, 2024
Security misconfiguration in NETGEAR router firmware allows adjacent unauthenticated attackers to read and modify unspecified data. NETGEAR has not published which security setting is incorrect, what request or protocol reaches it, or how affected firmware handles attacker-controlled input. Exploitation requires adjacent-network access, needs no credentials or user interaction, and has no reported availability impact.
