Netgear Inc WNR854T 1.5.2 (North America) contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the parse_st_header function due to use of a request header parameter in a strncpy where size is determined based on the input specified. By sending a specially crafted packet, an attacker can take control of the program counter and hijack control flow of the program to execute arbitrary system commands.
Netgear WNR854T 1.5.2 (North America) is vulnerable to Command Injection. An attacker can send a specially crafted request to post.cgi, updating the nvram parameter pppoe_peer_mac and forcing a reboot. This will result in command injection.
Netgear WNR854T 1.5.2 (North America) is vulnerable to Command Injection. An attacker can send a specially crafted request to post.cgi, updating the nvram parameter wan_hostname and forcing a reboot. This will result in command injection.
Netgear WNR854T 1.5.2 (North America) is vulnerable to Command Injection. An attacker can send a specially crafted request to post.cgi, updating the nvram parameter get_email. After which, they can visit the send_log.cgi endpoint which uses the parameter in a system call to achieve command execution.
Netgear WNR854T 1.5.2 (North America) is vulnerable to Arbitrary command execution in cmd.cgi which allows for the execution of system commands via the web interface.
Netgear DC112A V1.0.0.64 has an OS command injection vulnerability in the usb_adv.cgi, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via parameter "deviceName" passed to the binary through a POST request.
The administrative web interface of a Netgear C7800 Router running firmware version 6.01.07 (and possibly others) authenticates users via basic authentication, with an HTTP header containing a base64 value of the plaintext username and password. Because the web server also does not utilize transport security by default, this renders the administrative credentials vulnerable to eavesdropping by an adversary during every authenticated request made by a client to the router over a WLAN, or a LAN, should the adversary be able to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
A vulnerability in the Netgear DGN2200 router with firmware version v1.0.0.46 and earlier permits unauthorized individuals to bypass the authentication. When adding "?x=1.gif" to the the requested url, it will be recognized as passing the authentication.
NETGEAR DGN1000 before 1.1.00.48 is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability. A remote and unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary operating system commands as root by sending crafted HTTP requests to the setup.cgi endpoint. This vulnerability has been observed to be exploited in the wild since at least 2017 and specifically by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2025-02-06 UTC.
