High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Check which version of CP-XR-DE21-S Router you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
  2. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
  3. Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.
