Last modified

CVE-2016-4824 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) implementation on Corega CG-WLR300GNV and CG-WLR300GNV-W devices does not restrict the number of PIN authentication attempts, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain network access via a brute-force attack.. EPSS estimates a 1.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
