DescriptionCVE.org

Edimax EW-7438RPn-v3 Mini 1.27 allows unauthenticated attackers to access the /wizard_reboot.asp page in unsetup mode, which discloses the Wi-Fi SSID and security key. Attackers can retrieve the wireless password by sending a GET request to this endpoint, exposing sensitive information without authentication.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Ew-7438Rpn Mini devices running firmware version 1.27 and earlier contain a critical vulnerability that allows unauthorized reboot access, potentially causing service disruption across affected network infrastructure. With public exploits available and no vendor patch released, any organization using these devices faces immediate risk of denial-of-service attacks and potential unauthorized device manipulation.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to block all requests to /wizard_reboot endpoint; restrict management interface access to specific trusted IP addresses via network ACLs; segment affected devices into isolated VLANs with minimal lateral movement capability; disable remote management functions if not operationally required; implement continuous monitoring and alerting for unauthorized access attempts to administrative functions; require multi-factor authentication for any administrative access; maintain detailed audit logs of all device interactions.
