CVE-2004-2606
The Web interface in Linksys WRT54G 2.02.7 and BEFSR41 version 3, with the firewall disabled, allows remote attackers to attempt to login to an administration web page, even when the configuration specifies that remote administration is disabled.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.57%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
