Certain NETGEAR devices are affected by a stack-based buffer overflow by an unauthenticated attacker. This affects GS728TPPv2 before 6.0.0.48, GS728TPv2 before 6.0.0.48, GS750E before 1.0.1.4, GS752TPP before 6.0.0.48, and GS752TPv2 before 6.0.0.48.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Base score: 8.8
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.54%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 43
- Score date: 10/5/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
