CVE-2024-4022
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.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was found in Keenetic KN-1010, KN-1410, KN-1711, KN-1810 and KN-1910 up to 4.1.2.15. It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /version.js of the component Version Data Handler. The manipulation leads to information disclosure. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. VDB-261674 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The vendor is aware of this issue and plans to fix it by the end of 2024.
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 confidenceAn information disclosure vulnerability exists in the /version.js file of the Keenetic KN-1010, KN-1410, KN-1711, KN-1810, and KN-1910 routers running firmware up to 4.1.2.15. The Version Data Handler component allows remote attackers to access sensitive version information or potentially other files through unknown manipulation of this web interface file.

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 interface or check the device label to confirm the exact model number (KN-1010, KN-1410, KN-1711, KN-1810, or KN-1910)Affected if Model is one of KN-1010, KN-1410, KN-1711, KN-1810, or KN-1910
-
Check firmware versionAccess the router web interface, navigate to System > Overview or System > Firmware, and note the displayed firmware version numberAffected if Firmware version is 4.1.2.15 or lower
-
Verify /version.js is accessibleAttempt to access http://<router-ip>/version.js from a browser or curl commandAffected if The file loads and exposes version or system information
-
Confirm remote web interface exposureCheck router settings under Internet > Remote Access or System > Admin Panel to see if remote management is enabled (allow remote access option)Affected if Remote web management is enabled and the router is directly accessible from the internet
The device is affected if it is a KN-1010, KN-1410, KN-1711, KN-1810, or KN-1910 model running firmware 4.1.2.15 or lower, and the /version.js endpoint is accessible (especially if remote management is enabled).

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 dataRestrict remote access to the router's web administration interface (disable remote management if enabled) or implement network segmentation to limit exposure until the vendor releases the planned firmware patch by end of 2024.
