CVE-2017-12754
Stack buffer overflow in httpd in Asuswrt-Merlin firmware 380.67_0RT-AC5300 and earlier for ASUS devices and ASUS firmware for ASUS RT-AC5300, RT_AC1900P, RT-AC68U, RT-AC68P, RT-AC88U, RT-AC66U, RT-AC66U_B1, RT-AC58U, RT-AC56U, RT-AC55U, RT-AC52U,…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.71%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
