Remote code execution via openvpn_server_ip overflow
Published Nov 22, 2022 · Updated Apr 29, 2025
Buffer overflow in Netgear R7000P firmware 1.3.1.64 allows remote attackers to execute code via the openvpn_server_ip parameter. Processing oversized openvpn_server_ip input writes beyond its destination buffer, producing an out-of-bounds write. The CVE record rates exploitation as unauthenticated over the network; successful exploitation can compromise router confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
