Missing Authentication for Critical Function, Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), and Use of Hard-coded Credentials in ASUS Control Center allow an unauthorized user to obtain the encryption key via an HTTP request, causing a local service to enable SSH on port 2222. The attacker can then log in with the hardcode credentials to obtain a root shell, enabling direct reading, writing, and deletion of data on ASUS Control Center, as well as remote control of all servers, PCs, and workstations within the company. Refer to the 'Security Update for ASUS Control Center' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

common.c in infosvr in ASUS WRT firmware 3.0.0.4.3761071, 3.0.0.376.2524-g0013f52, and other versions, as used in RT-AC66U, RT-N66U, and other routers, does not properly check the MAC address for a request, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary commands via a NETCMDIDMANUCMD packet to UDP port 9999. NOTE: this issue was incorrectly mapped to CVE-2014-10000, but that ID is invalid due to its use as an example of the 2014 CVE ID syntax change.
Unspecified vulnerability on the ASUS WL-500W wireless router has unknown impact and remote attack vectors, as demonstrated by a certain module in VulnDisco Pack Professional 8.11. NOTE: as of 20090903, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco Pack author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

The ASUS DSL-N17U modem with firmware 1.1.0.2 allows attackers to access the admin interface by changing the admin password without authentication via a POST request to AdvancedSystemContent.asp with the uiViewToolsusername=admin&uiViewToolsPassword= and uiViewToolsPasswordConfirm= substrings.
Symlink Traversal vulnerability in ASUS RT-AC66U and RT-N56U due to misconfiguration in the SMB service.
ASUS HG100 devices with firmware before 1.05.12 allow unauthenticated access, leading to remote command execution.
An issue was discovered in ASUSWRT 3.0.0.4.384.20308. When processing the /startapply.htm POST data, there is a command injection issue via shell metacharacters in the fbemail parameter. By using this issue, an attacker can control the router and get shell.
A broken access control vulnerability in SmartHome app (Android versions up to 3.0.42190515, ios versions up to 2.0.22) allows an attacker in the same local area network to list user accounts and control IoT devices that connect with its gateway (HG100) via http://[target]/smarthome/devicecontrol without any authentication. CVSS 3.0 base score 10 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
A broken access control vulnerability in HG100 firmware versions up to 4.00.06 allows an attacker in the same local area network to control IoT devices that connect with itself via http://[target]/smarthome/devicecontrol without any authentication. CVSS 3.0 base score 10 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
System command injection in appGet.cgi on ASUS RT-AC3200 version 3.0.0.4.382.50010 allows attackers to execute system commands via the "loadscript" URL parameter.
