Network-accessible, no auth needed, but victim must click crafted link (UI:R); scope changes as redirect crosses to external domain (S:C); no direct availability impact.

1DescriptionCVE.org
An unauthenticated URL redirection vulnerability has been identified in Archer AX20 V2 due to improper validation of user-supplied URL input within the web interface. An unauthenticated attacker can craft URLs containing URL-encoded path traversal sequences.
When processed by the embedded web server, these inputs may cause the device to respond with HTTP 3xx redirects to attacker-controlled external domains.
This issue affects Archer AX20 V2.0: through 2.1.9 Build 20230829.
AnalysisAI
Open redirect in the TP-Link Archer AX20 V2 embedded web server allows unauthenticated attackers to craft URLs containing URL-encoded path traversal sequences that cause the device to issue HTTP 3xx redirects toward attacker-controlled external domains. All firmware versions through 2.1.9 Build 20230829 on the V2.0 hardware revision are confirmed affected per TP-Link's own advisory and CPE data. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must be able to deliver a crafted URL to a victim who will then actively interact with it (UI:A per CVSS vector), meaning a click-through social engineering step is mandatory - passive network observation alone is insufficient. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor-provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:L/VA:L) yields a score of 5.9 Medium. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker identifies targets known to use the Archer AX20 V2 (e.g., via ISP disclosure, forum posts, or network scanning) and emails a link formatted as 'http://192.168.0.1/%2E%2E%2Fattacker.example.com/fake-login' alongside a social engineering pretext such as a firmware upgrade notice. When the victim clicks the link, the router's embedded web server processes the URL-encoded traversal sequence and responds with an HTTP 302 redirect to attacker.example.com, a convincing phishing page harvesting router or banking credentials. … |
| Remediation | The primary fix is to upgrade the Archer AX20 V2.0 firmware to a version released after 2.1.9 Build 20230829, available from the TP-Link official download page at https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/archer-ax20/v2/#Firmware. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
