Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-45732 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Netgear R6700 Firmware. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-45732/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-45732/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-45732","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-45732/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-45732","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6x2m-2w3q-qqp5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netgear Nighthawk router","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Hardcoded credentials allow attackers to decrypt and modify router configuration backups, enabling unauthorized changes to restricted settings.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"r6700_firmware","vendor":"netgear"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"Netgear Nighthawk R6700 version 1.0.4.120 makes use of a hardcoded credential.
