Title
ASUS RT-AX92U lighttpd mod_webdav.so SQL Injection Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Summary
ASUS RT-AX92U lighttpd mod_webdav.so SQL Injection Information Disclosure Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected ASUS RT-AX92U routers. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the mod_webdav.so module. When parsing a request, the process does not properly validate a user-supplied string before using it to construct SQL queries. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-16078.
