The NETGEAR WNR2000v5 router leaks its serial number when performing a request to the /BRS_netgear_success.html URI. This serial number allows a user to obtain the administrator username and password, when used in combination with the CVE-2016-10176 vulnerability that allows resetting the answers to the password-recovery questions.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects NETGEAR WNR2000v5 routers. A web page can disclose the device serial number, and the CVE description says that serial number can help recover administrator credentials when chained with CVE-2016-10176. That makes exposed management interfaces a serious business risk. Exposure is most likely where NETGEAR WNR2000v5 administration pages are reachable by untrusted users, especially through remote management or poorly segmented networks. The bundle does not identify other models or versions. Prioritize exposed or remotely managed WNR2000v5 routers. The risk is credential compromise of network edge equipment when chained with a related flaw, but the bundle lacks active exploitation evidence and complete patch details. Mitigation focus: Inventory NETGEAR WNR2000v5 routers and record firmware versions.; Check NETGEAR advisory guidance for affected firmware and updates.; Disable internet-facing router administration wherever possible..
