Netgear urges users to upgrade two flaws impacting WiFi router models

Pierluigi Paganini February 04, 2025

Netgear disclosed two critical flaws impacting multiple WiFi router models and urges customers to address them.

Netgear addressed two critical vulnerabilities, internally tracked as PSV-2023-0039 and PSV-2021-0117, impacting multiple WiFi router models and urged customers to install the latest firmware.

The two flaws are, respectively, a remote code execution issue and an authentication bypass vulnerability.

An unauthenticated attacker could exploit both vulnerabilities without user interaction.

The unauthenticated RCE security vulnerability PSV-2023-0039 impacts the following product models:

  • XR1000, the issue was fixed in firmware version 1.0.0.74
  • XR1000v2, the issue was fixed in firmware version 1.1.0.22
  • XR500, the issue was fixed in firmware version 2.3.2.134

“NETGEAR strongly recommends that you download the latest firmware as soon as possible.” reads the advisory.

The authentication bypass security vulnerability PSV-2021-0117 impacts the following product models:

  • WAX206, the issue was fixed in firmware version 1.0.5.3
  • WAX220, the issue was fixed in firmware version 1.0.3.5
  • WAX214v2, the issue was fixed in firmware version 1.0.2.5

Download the latest firmware for your NETGEAR product from the official website:

  • Visit NETGEAR Support.
  • Start typing your model number in the search box, then select your model from the drop-down menu as soon as it appears.
    If you do not see a drop-down menu, make sure that you entered your model number correctly, or select a product category to browse for your product model.
  • Click Downloads.
  • Under Current Versions, select the download whose title begins with Firmware Version.
  • Click Download.
  • Follow the instructions in your product’s user manual, firmware release notes, or product support page to install the new firmware.
