Asus Alert: Critical Flaw in AiCloud Opens Hackers' Paradise

Heads up: ASUS has confirmed a critical security flaw in its AiCloud feature, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on affected routers. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2024-3912, stems from improper input validation in the AiCloud service—specifically a command injection bug triggered by specially crafted HTTP requests. If exploited, this could hand over control of the router to attackers on a silver platter.
ASUS has rolled out firmware patches for the impacted models, and users are strongly urged to update immediately. The affected devices include several popular ASUS router models used in both home and small office environments. As always, exposed services like AiCloud can be a double-edged sword—handy for remote access, but a risk if not properly secured.
At Wavasec, we’re constantly tracking vulnerabilities like this to help our clients stay ahead of the curve. If you're running an ASUS router or have similar remote-access features enabled, now's the time to check your firmware, lock down access, and consider a security audit.
