High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.13%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the session handling functionality of the NETGEAR N300 (WNR2000v5 with Firmware Version V1.0.0.70) HTTP server. An HTTP request with an empty User-Agent string sent to a page requiring authentication can cause a null pointer dereference, resulting in the HTTP service crashing. An unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.
