Zyxel security advisory for command injection and buffer overflow vulnerabilities of CPE, fiber ONTs, and WiFi extenders
CVE: CVE-2022-43389, CVE-2022-43390, CVE-2022-43391, CVE-2022-43392
Summary
Zyxel is aware of multiple vulnerabilities reported by Positive Technologies and advises users to install the applicable firmware updates for optimal protection.
What are the vulnerabilities?
CVE-2022-43389
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the library of the web server in some 5G NR/4G LTE CPE devices, which could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute some OS commands or to cause denial-of-service (DoS) conditions on a vulnerable device. Note that the WAN access is disabled by default on most devices.
CVE-2022-43390
A command injection vulnerability in the CGI program of some 5G NR/4G LTE CPE, DSL/Ethernet CPE, fiber ONT, and WiFi extender devices, which could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute some OS commands on a vulnerable device by sending a crafted HTTP request. Note that the WAN access is disabled by default on most devices.
CVE-2022-43391
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the parameter of the CGI program in some 5G NR/4G LTE CPE, DSL/Ethernet CPE, fiber ONT, and WiFi extender devices, which could allow a remote authenticated attacker to cause DoS conditions by sending a crafted HTTP request. Note that the WAN access is disabled by default on most devices.
CVE-2022-43392
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the parameter of web server in some 5G NR/4G LTE CPE, DSL/Ethernet CPE, fiber ONT, and WiFi extender devices, which could allow a remote authenticated attacker to cause DoS conditions by sending a crafted authorization request. Note that the WAN access is disabled by default on most devices.
