DescriptionCVE.org

Missing authentication for a critical function in ASUS Control Center Express Agent allows an unauthenticated nearby user to control the host via a direct connection to the agent when the host has an active login session. Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS Control Center Express Agent ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated adjacent-network host takeover in ASUS Control Center Express Agent exposes critical management functions without any authentication check (CWE-306), allowing any attacker with network adjacency to directly connect to the agent and fully control the host. The attack is contingent on the host having an active login session at the time of exploitation. …
