HighCVSS 8.8 · v3.0—Proof of concept No fix recorded

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 36/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (Exploit-DB); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 3.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 89.2% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.

Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in NETGEAR DGN2200 routers with firmware 10.0.0.20 through 10.0.0.50 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of users for requests that perform DNS lookups via the host_name parameter to dnslookup.cgi. NOTE: this issue can be combined with CVE-2017-6334 to execute arbitrary code remotely.

Weakness class (CWE)

Root cause

State-changing requests rely on the session cookie the browser sends automatically; nothing verifies that the request came from the user’s own page.
