Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-28337 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-28337 is a high-severity vulnerability in NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router (RAX30), published on 15 Mar 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-28337 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi6 Router (RAX30). 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-2023-28337/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28337/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28337","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28337/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28337","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mr98-5j2v-xqmf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netgear WiFi6 Router","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can upload malicious firmware to Netgear Nighthawk routers by bypassing validation checks via a hidden parameter, leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"rax30_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-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"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.
