The password-recovery feature on NETGEAR D3600 devices with firmware 1.0.0.49 and D6000 devices with firmware 1.0.0.49 and earlier allows remote attackers to discover the cleartext administrator password by reading the cgi-bin/passrec.asp HTML source code.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Affected NETGEAR D3600 and D6000 routers can reveal the administrator password through the password-recovery page source. If the admin interface is reachable by an attacker, device control may be at risk. The sources do not provide CVSS, confirmed active exploitation, or detailed fix status. Exposure is likely limited to legacy NETGEAR D3600 and D6000 devices running the listed firmware, especially where the web administration interface is reachable from untrusted networks. Treat as high priority for any exposed or still-deployed affected router. A leaked admin password can enable device takeover, traffic interception, and persistence at the network edge. Mitigation focus: Inventory NETGEAR D3600 and D6000 devices and firmware versions.; Check NETGEAR advisory for fixed firmware or replacement guidance.; Disable remote administration from untrusted networks where possible..
