Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-20728)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to a logic error on the AP that forwards packets that are destined to a wireless client if they are received on the native VLAN. A remote non-authenticated attacker on the local network with access to the native VLAN can direct traffic directly to the client through their MAC/IP combination, and as a result bypass VLAN separation and potentially also bypass any Layer 3 protection mechanisms that are deployed.
