FKIE_CVE-2024-54126

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-12-05 13:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:09
Severity
8.5 (High) - CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
This vulnerability exists in the TP-Link Archer C50 due to improper signature verification mechanism in the firmware upgrade process at its web interface. An attacker with administrative privileges within the router’s Wi-Fi range could exploit this vulnerability by uploading and executing malicious firmware which could lead to complete compromise of the targeted device.
