CVE-2019-17137 (GCVE-0-2019-17137)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-02-10 19:15 – Updated: 2024-08-05 01:33
VLAI
Summary
This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to bypass authentication on affected installations of NETGEAR AC1200 R6220 Firmware version 1.1.0.86 Smart WiFi Router. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the processing of path strings. By inserting a null byte into the path, the user can skip most authentication checks. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to bypass authentication on the system. Was ZDI-CAN-8616.

Summary
Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 1.15.1 and 0.31.1, the encode() function in lib/helpers/AxiosURLSearchParams.js contains a character mapping (charMap) at line 21 that reverses the safe percent-encoding of null bytes. After encodeURIComponent('\x00') correctly produces the safe sequence %00, the charMap entry '%00': '\x00' converts it back to a raw null byte. Primary impact is limited because the standard axios request flow is not affected. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.15.1 and 0.31.1.

CVE-2026-42579 (GCVE-0-2026-42579)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-05-13 18:01 – Updated: 2026-06-30 03:15

Title
Netty: DNS Codec Input Validation Bypass in Netty (Encoder + Decoder)
Summary
Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, Netty's DNS codec does not enforce RFC 1035 domain name constraints during either encoding or decoding. This creates a bidirectional attack surface: malicious DNS responses can exploit the decoder, and user-influenced hostnames can exploit the encoder. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final.
