Missing Authentication for a Critical Function in certain ASUS routers allows an unauthorized nearby user to send specific commands via HTTP requests, causing the router to return device identification information and switch into a specific mode. As a result, when the router encounters abnormal conditions, it may be unable to perform self-recovery.
Refer to the '
Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.
