CVE-2026-0409 is a medium severity vulnerability in NETGEAR Orbi 370 series devices before version 12.1.2.7. It involves improper restriction of operations within the bounds of a memory buffer (CWE-119). An attacker capable of intercepting and tampering with traffic between the router and the Internet could potentially run commands on the device when the administrator performs certain management actions.
CVE-2026-24714 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting certain end-of-service NETGEAR products that include an undocumented 'TelnetEnable' feature. This feature allows an attacker to activate the Telnet service remotely by sending a specific magic packet, without requiring authentication or user interaction. Exploiting this vulnerability can lead to a complete compromise of the device's integrity, as attackers may gain unauthorized remote access. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5, indicating a significant risk, especially since it requires no privileges or user interaction and can be exploited over the network. Although no known exploits are currently reported in the wild, the presence of this backdoor-like functionality poses a serious threat. European organizations using affected NETGEAR devices should prioritize mitigation to prevent potential unauthorized access and control. The countries most likely affected are those with high NETGEAR market penetration and critical infrastructure relying on these devices, such as Germany, France, and the UK. Immediate mitigation steps include disabling Telnet if possible, applying any available firmware updates, and segmenting vulnerable devices from critical networks.
An insufficient input validation vulnerability in NETGEAR Orbi devices'
DHCPv6 functionality allows network adjacent attackers authenticated
over WiFi or on LAN to execute OS command injections on the router.
DHCPv6 is not enabled by default.
A path traversal vulnerability in NETGEAR WiFi range extenders allows
an attacker with LAN authentication to access the router's IP and
review the contents of the dynamically generated webproc file, which
records the username and password submitted to the router GUI.
An insufficient authentication vulnerability in NETGEAR WiFi range
extenders allows a network adjacent attacker with WiFi authentication or
a physical Ethernet port connection to bypass the authentication
process and access the admin panel.
An insufficient input validation vulnerability in the NETGEAR XR1000v2
allows attackers connected to the router's LAN to execute OS command
injections.
An authentication bypass vulnerability in NETGEAR Orbi devices allows
users connected to the local network to access the router web interface
as an admin.
An insufficient input validation vulnerability in NETGEAR Orbi routers
allows attackers connected to the router's LAN to execute OS command
injections.
A vulnerability in the speedtest feature of affected NETGEAR Nighthawk routers, caused by improper input validation, can allow attackers on the router's WAN side, using attacker-in-the-middle techniques (MiTM) to manipulate DNS responses and execute commands when speedtests are run.

An improper input validation vulnerability in the NETGEAR Nighthawk R7000P (end of service) routers lets an authenticated administrator with local network access to the device, to execute OS command injections and make unauthorized modifications to the router software and functionality impacting its integrity. There is no additional impact to confidentiality or availability.
This issue affects R7000P: through 1.3.3.154.
CVE-2025-12941 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability affecting NETGEAR C6220 and C6230 cable modem + WiFi routers. The flaw stems from missing authentication for a critical function, allowing any authenticated local WiFi user to reboot the router without proper authorization. Exploitation requires local network access and low privileges but no user interaction. This can disrupt network availability by forcing unexpected device reboots. No public exploits are known yet, and no patches have been released. European organizations using these NETGEAR models should be aware of potential service interruptions. Mitigations include restricting WiFi access, segmenting networks, and monitoring for unusual reboot activity. Countries with higher NETGEAR market share and critical infrastructure relying on these devices are at greater risk.
Improper input validation
