An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-27853 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-27853 is a critical vulnerability in NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router, published on 10 Mar 2023. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-27853 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router. 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-2023-27853/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27853/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-27853","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27853/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-27853","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r255-m86m-mx5f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NETGEAR WiFi6 Router","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A format string vulnerability in the SOAP service allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Routers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"rax30_firmware","vendor":"netgear"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-120","name":"Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input"}],"description":"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.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Other in NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router","id":"CVE-2023-27853","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Rockwell Automation Arena® Simulation Out of Bounds Read Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-27854"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router","id":"CVE-2023-27852"},"products":["NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router"],"published":"2023-03-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-44658","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in Netgear RAX30 (AX2400)","id":"CVE-2023-1327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-14"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router","id":"CVE-2023-27852","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"NETGEAR RAX30 fing_dil Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-51635","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"NETGEAR RAX30 SOAP Request SQL Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-27358","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"NETGEAR RAX30 soap_serverd Stack-based Buffer Overflow Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-27368","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-03"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-27","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A format string vulnerability in the SOAP service allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Routers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27853/"}
