ASUS tung bản vá khẩn cấp khắc phục lỗ hổng bảo mật nghiêm trọng trên router Wi-Fi 7

ASUS rolled out an urgent security update for its latest Wi-Fi 7 router lineup, addressing an improper authentication vulnerability. The security flaw specifically affects router models currently running the 3.0.0.6_102 firmware series. According to the official ASUS security advisory, the bug allows an unauthenticated attacker situated on an adjacent network to completely bypass security protocols and gain full admin access to the router. While the "adjacent network" condition somewhat mitigates the threat by requiring the attacker to be in relative local proximity (rather than launching an attack entirely across the internet), the ability to compromise a network's central hub without requiring any credentials is a critical threat.

ASUS strongly recommends all affected users to download and install the newly patched firmware. You can fetch the necessary updates automatically through the router's built-in web administration portal or by manually downloading the firmware files directly from the official ASUS Support and Wi-Fi Router product pages . For network administrators unable to flash the new firmware right away, ASUS has outlined several temporary mitigations to minimize the attack surface. Most importantly, users must ensure that remote access from WAN is disabled, limiting management interface access exclusively to trusted local machines. ASUS also advises enforcing robust, unique administrator and Wi-Fi passwords. Users should aggressively monitor their networks to prevent untrusted devices from joining, review and wipe any unrecognized companion-app sessions, and perform a complete system reboot following any eventual firmware installation.
