Netgear R8500 v1.0.2.160 and R7000P v1.3.3.154 were discovered to multiple stack overflow vulnerabilities in the component usb_device.cgi via the cifs_user, read_access, and write_access parameters. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted POST request.
This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 5.7, indicating it requires adjacent network access with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 4 products from netgear, from netgear, from netgear and 1 other, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2024, 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.
