A buffer overflow vulnerability in the parameter of web server in Zyxel Nebula NR7101 firmware prior to V1.15(ACCC.3)C0, which could allow an authenticated attacker to cause denial-of-service (DoS) conditions by sending a crafted authorization request.

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the cm_processREQ_NC opcode of Asus RT-AX82U 3.0.0.4.386_49674-ge182230 router's configuration service. A specially-crafted network packets can lead to a disclosure of sensitive information. An attacker can send a network request to trigger this vulnerability.

A denial of service vulnerability exists in the cfg_server cm_processConnDiagPktList opcode of Asus RT-AX82U 3.0.0.4.386_49674-ge182230 router's configuration service. A specially-crafted network packet can lead to denial of service. An attacker can send a malicious packet to trigger this vulnerability.

An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the get_IFTTTTtoken.cgi functionality of Asus RT-AX82U 3.0.0.4.386_49674-ge182230. A specially-crafted HTTP request can lead to full administrative access to the device. An attacker would need to send a series of HTTP requests to exploit this vulnerability.
