2023-11-30 15:11

Zyxel has addressed multiple security issues, including three critical ones that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute operating system commands on vulnerable network-attached storage devices.

Zyxel NAS systems are used for storing data in a centralized location on the network.

Typical Zyxel NAS users include small to medium-sized businesses seeking a solution that combines data management, remote work, and collaboration features, as well as IT professionals setting up data redundancy systems, or videographers and digital artists working with large files.

CVE-2023-35137: Improper authentication vulnerability in Zyxel NAS devices' authentication module, allowing unauthenticated attackers to obtain system information via a crafted URL. CVE-2023-35138: Command injection flaw in the "Show zysync server contents" function in Zyxel NAS devices, permitting unauthenticated attackers to execute OS commands through a crafted HTTP POST request.
