Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-07-23 23:20

NETGEAR RAX30 Improper Certificate Validation Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to compromise the integrity of downloaded information on affected installations of NETGEAR RAX30 routers. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the downloading of files via HTTPS. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the certificate presented by the server. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-19589. (DoS) It may be in a state. NETGEAR RAX30 is a WiFi 6 router launched by NETGEAR. It supports dual bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz), has a maximum transmission rate of 2400Mbps, uses three external antennas, is equipped with a 1.5GHz triple-core processor, and can connect 20 devices at the same time.
