VAR-201411-0483
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-13 23:27ASUS RT-AC68U, RT-AC66R, RT-AC66U, RT-AC56R, RT-AC56U, RT-N66R, RT-N66U, RT-N56R, RT-N56U, and possibly other RT-series routers before firmware 3.0.0.4.376.x do not verify the integrity of firmware (1) update information or (2) downloaded updates, which allows man-in-the-middle (MITM) attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image. Supplementary information : CWE Vulnerability type by CWE-345: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity ( Inadequate verification of data reliability ) Has been identified. ASUS RT-Series Wireless Routers is a wireless router device. There is a middleman security bypass vulnerability in ASUS RT Series Wireless Routers. An attacker can exploit a vulnerability to bypass certain restrictions and obtain sensitive information. The following products are affected: ASUS RT-AC68U, RT-AC66R, RT-AC66U, RT-AC56R, RT-AC56U, RT-N66R, RT-N66U, RT-N56R, RT-N56U. In short, the router downloads via clear-text a file from http://dlcdnet.asus.com, parses it to determine the latest firmware version, then downloads (again in the clear) a binary file matching that version number from the same web site. No HTTP = no assurance that the site on the other end is the legitimate ASUS web site, and no assurance that the firmware file and version lookup table have not been modified in transit.
In the link below I describe the issue in detail, and demonstrate a proof of concept through which I successfully caused an RT-AC66R to "upgrade" to an older firmware with known vulnerabilities. In concept it should also be possible to deliver a fully custom malicious firmware in the same manner.
This applies to the RT-AC68U, RT-AC68U, RT-AC66R, RT-AC66U, RT-AC56R, RT-AC56U, RT-N66R, RT-N66U, RT-N56R, RT-N56U. It may also apply to the RT-N53, RT-N14U, RT-N16, and RT-N16R since they use the same firmware base but a different sub-version.
This has been fixed as an undocumented feature of the 376 firmware branch (3.0.0.4.376.x).

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
