CVE-2026-76070 is a critical-severity flaw (CVSS 9.8) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
Netis NC63 firmware through V3.0.0.3327 contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to overwrite saved stack state by submitting an oversized Base64-encoded password to the login handler in /bin/netis.cgi. Attackers can exploit the custom Base64 decoder's lack of output length validation against the fixed-size stack buffer to achieve remote code execution with root privileges, as the Boa web s
