Original release date: June 29, 2020

Multiple Netgear router models contain vulnerabilities that a remote attacker can exploit to take control of an 
affected device.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) encourages users and administrators to update to the most 
recent firmware version and to replace end-of-life devices that are no longer supported with security patches. Given 
the increase in telework [ https://www.cisa.gov/telework ], CISA recommends that CISOs consider the risk that these 
vulnerabilities present to business networks.
