NETGEAR RAX30 Firmware

NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router prior to V1.0.10.94 contains a format string vulnerability in a SOAP service that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device.

In Netgear RAX30 V1.0.10.94, a PHP-FPM misconfiguration vulnerability is caused by not following the specification to only limit FPM to .php extensions. An attacker may exploit this by uploading malicious scripts disguised with alternate extensions and tricking the web server into executing them as PHP, bypassing security mechanisms based on file extension filtering. This may lead to remote code execution (RCE), information disclosure, or full system compromise.

Netgear RAX30 (AX2400), prior to version 1.0.6.74, was affected by an authentication bypass vulnerability, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to gain administrative access to the device's web management interface by resetting the admin password.

NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router prior to V1.0.10.94 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in various CGI mechanisms that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device.

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the JSON Parsing getblockschedule() functionality of Netgear RAX30 1.0.11.96 and 1.0.7.78. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to code execution. An attacker can make an authenticated HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.

NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router prior to V1.0.10.94 contains a file sharing mechanism that unintentionally allows users with upload permissions to execute arbitrary code on the device.

When uploading a firmware image to a Netgear Nighthawk Wifi6 Router (RAX30), a hidden “forceFWUpdate” parameter may be provided to force the upgrade to complete and bypass certain validation checks. End users can use this to upload modified, unofficial, and potentially malicious firmware to the device.

A support user exists on the device and appears to be a backdoor for Technical Support staff. The default password for this account is “support” and cannot be changed by a user via any normally accessible means.

Certain NETGEAR routers allow unauthenticated users to gain control of the router

NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router prior to V1.0.10.94 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery attacks on all endpoints due to improperly implemented CSRF protections.

NETGEAR RAX30 rex_cgi JSON Parsing Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

NETGEAR RAX30 Telnet CLI passwd Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

The default console presented to users over telnet (when enabled) is restricted to a subset of commands. Commands issued at this console, however, appear to be fed directly into a system call or other similar function. This allows any authenticated user to execute arbitrary commands on the device.

Any request send to a Netgear Nighthawk Wifi6 Router (RAX30)'s web service containing a “Content-Type” of “multipartboundary=” will result in the request body being written to “/tmp/mulipartFile” on the device itself. A sufficiently large file will cause device resources to be exhausted, resulting in the device becoming unusable until it is rebooted.

In Netgear RAX30 V1.0.10.94_3, the USERLIMIT_GLOBAL option is set to 0 in multiple bftpd-related configuration files. This can cause DoS attacks when unlimited users are connected.
