CVE-2021-20090
A path traversal vulnerability in the web interfaces of Buffalo WSR-2533DHPL2 firmware version <= 1.02 and WSR-2533DHP3 firmware version <= 1.24 could allow unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass authentication.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 100%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 100
- Fecha de la puntuación: 29/9/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
CISA KEV — explotada activamente
- Añadida al catálogo: 3/11/2021
- Plazo de remediación: 17/11/2021
- Uso conocido en ransomware: Unknown
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación

T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access80 %
Path traversal (CWE-22) en interfaz web sin autenticación (PR:N, UI:N) permite eludir controles de acceso remoto. AV:N confirma T1190. Impacto: lectura de datos sensibles (C:H) y evasión de autenticación (I:H implica manipulación de sesiones/T1078).
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
