CVE-2016-6277
HighCVSS 8.8KEVSummary
Routery NETGEAR R6250, R6400, R6700, R6900, R7000, R7100LG, R7300DST, R7900, R8000 oraz D6220, D6400, D7000 przed określonymi wersjami oprogramowania są podatne na zdalne wykonanie dowolnych poleceń przez atakujących. Wykorzystują oni metaznaki powłoki w ścieżce do cgi-bin.
Risk Assessment
Atakujący mogą zdalnie uzyskać dostęp do systemu, co może prowadzić do przejęcia kontroli nad urządzeniem oraz potencjalnego dostępu do sieci lokalnej. To stwarza poważne zagrożenie dla bezpieczeństwa danych i infrastruktury organizacji.
Recommendation
Zaleca się aktualizację oprogramowania routerów do najnowszych wersji, które eliminują tę podatność. Należy również monitorować logi systemowe w celu wykrycia potencjalnych prób ataków.
