CVE-2017-17215 is a vulnerability that affects Huawei HG532 routers. It allows remote code execution (RCE) by an attacker who has control of the router's web interface.
The vulnerability was first discovered in December 2017 by security researchers at Check Point Software Technologies. It was found to be caused by a flaw in the router's implementation of the TR-064 protocol, which is used for managing the router remotely.
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted packet to the router's TR-064 interface, allowing them to execute arbitrary code on the router. This could allow the attacker to take control of the router and use it for malicious purposes, such as launching DDoS attacks or intercepting network traffic.
Huawei released a security update to address the vulnerability in January 2018.
