CVSS v3.1
Official Description
WN-G300R3 firmware version 1.0.2 and earlier uses hardcoded credentials which may allow an attacker that can access the device to execute arbitrary code on the device.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2017-2283 requires adjacent network access, limiting remote exploitation but still posing risk in shared or local network environments.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 8.0.
