CVE-2019-5986
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceCross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in multiple Hikari Denwa router and Home GateWay models from NTT East and West. The flaw allows remote attackers to hijack administrator authentication by tricking logged-in administrators into visiting malicious sites that send unauthorized requests to the router's web management interface.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify router modelLog into the router web administration interface and look for the model name (typically displayed on the status or system information page), or check the product label on the physical deviceAffected if The model is one of: Pr S300ne, Rt S300ne, Rv S340ne, Pr S300hi, Rt S300hi, Rv S340hi, Pr S300se, or Rt S300se from NTT East
-
Check firmware versionIn the router web admin interface, navigate to the firmware or system information page and note the displayed firmware version numberAffected if The firmware version is <= 19.41 for S300ne or S340ne models, <= 19.01.0005 for S300hi or S340hi models, or <= 19.40 for S300se models
-
Confirm web management interface is enabledAccess the router admin panel via its IP address (commonly 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) in a web browserAffected if The web management interface is accessible and does not require additional authentication beyond the admin login
-
Verify CSRF protection statusInspect the router admin pages for anti-CSRF tokens or referrer validation in forms and AJAX requests. Check the HTML source of admin pages for the presence of unique tokens in state-changing requestsAffected if No anti-CSRF tokens are present in forms and the router accepts requests without proper referrer validation
A user is affected if they own one of the listed NTT East router models with firmware at or below the specified version limits and the web management interface is accessible.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate router firmware to versions newer than those listed (no specific fixed version provided in advisory). As a temporary workaround, avoid browsing untrusted websites while logged into the router admin panel, and log out after each session.
