Certain NETGEAR devices are affected by a stack-based buffer overflow by an authenticated user. This affects D7800 before 1.0.1.44, R7500v2 before 1.0.3.38, R7800 before 1.0.2.52, RBK20 before 2.3.0.28, RBR20 before 2.3.0.28, RBS20 before 2.3.0.28, RBK40 before 2.3.0.28, RBS40 before 2.3.0.28, RBK50 before 2.3.0.32, RBR50 before 2.3.0.32, and RBS50 before 2.3.0.32.
This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 6.8, indicating it requires adjacent network access with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), integrity (unauthorized modifications), and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 22 products from netgear, from netgear, from netgear and 19 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2020, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For netgear's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
