CVE-2017-17746 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Weak access control methods on the TP-Link TL-SG108E 1.0.0 allow any user on a NAT network with an authenticated administrator to access the device without entering user credentials. The authentication record is stored on the device; thus if an administrator authenticates from a NAT network, the authentication applies to the IP address of the NAT gateway, and any user behind that NAT gateway is also treated as authenticated.. EPSS estimates a 2.04% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
