NAT tunnel interception via unchecked server certificates
Published Feb 3, 2026 · Updated Feb 3, 2026
Improper certificate validation in ASUSTOR ADM 4.1.0 through 4.3.3.ROF1 and 5.0.0 through 5.1.1.RCI1 allows attackers to intercept NAT tunnels. A third-party NAT traversal module accepts an untrusted SSL/TLS certificate when connecting to the signaling server, permitting tunnel interception or redirection. The attacker must control the network path; device-service access still requires additional authentication, while tunnel proxying can intercept traffic or interrupt service.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=4.1.0 <=4.3.3.ROF1
- Affected versionversion=5.0.0 <=5.1.1.RCI1
