| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2023-30799 | CRITICAL | 9.1 | Jul 19, 2023 | MikroTik RouterOS stable before 6.49.7 and long-term through 6.48.6 are vulnerable to a privilege escalation issue. A remote and authenticated attacker can escalate privileges from admin to super-admin on the Winbox or HTTP interface. The attacker can abuse this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. |
| CVE-2022-45313 | HIGH | 8.8 | Dec 5, 2022 | Mikrotik RouterOs before stable v7.5 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds read in the hotspot process. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted nova message. |
| CVE-2019-3976 | HIGH | 8.8 | Oct 29, 2019 | RouterOS 6.45.6 Stable, RouterOS 6.44.5 Long-term, and below are vulnerable to an arbitrary directory creation vulnerability via the upgrade package's name field. If an authenticated user installs a malicious package then a directory could be created and the developer shell could be enabled. |
| CVE-2023-32154 | HIGH | 7.5 | May 3, 2024 | Mikrotik RouterOS RADVD Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Mikrotik RouterOS. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Router Advertisement Daemon. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverag |
| CVE-2023-30800 | HIGH | 7.5 | Sep 7, 2023 | The web server used by MikroTik RouterOS version 6 is affected by a heap memory corruption issue. A remote and unauthenticated attacker can corrupt the server's heap memory by sending a crafted HTTP request. As a result, the web interface crashes and is immediately restarted. The issue was fixed in RouterOS 6.49.10 stable. RouterOS version 7 is not affected. |
| CVE-2020-20021 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jul 12, 2023 | An issue discovered in MikroTik Router v6.46.3 and earlier allows attacker to cause denial of service via misconfiguration in the SSH daemon. |
| CVE-2019-16160 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 7, 2020 | An integer underflow in the SMB server of MikroTik RouterOS before 6.45.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to crash the service. |
| CVE-2020-11881 | HIGH | 7.5 | Sep 14, 2020 | An array index error in MikroTik RouterOS 6.41.3 through 6.46.5, and 7.x through 7.0 Beta5, allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash the SMB server via modified setup-request packets, aka SUP-12964. |
| CVE-2018-5951 | HIGH | 7.5 | Mar 2, 2020 | An issue was discovered in Mikrotik RouterOS. Crafting a packet that has a size of 1 byte and sending it to an IPv6 address of a RouterOS box with IP Protocol 97 will cause RouterOS to reboot imminently. All versions of RouterOS that supports EoIPv6 are vulnerable to this attack. |
| CVE-2019-3979 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 29, 2019 | RouterOS versions 6.45.6 Stable, 6.44.5 Long-term, and below are vulnerable to a DNS unrelated data attack. The router adds all A records to its DNS cache even when the records are unrelated to the domain that was queried. Therefore, a remote attacker controlled DNS server can poison the router's DNS cache via malicious responses with additional and untrue records. |
| CVE-2019-3978 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 29, 2019 | RouterOS versions 6.45.6 Stable, 6.44.5 Long-term, and below allow remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger DNS queries via port 8291. The queries are sent from the router to a server of the attacker's choice. The DNS responses are cached by the router, potentially resulting in cache poisoning |
| CVE-2019-3977 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 29, 2019 | RouterOS 6.45.6 Stable, RouterOS 6.44.5 Long-term, and below insufficiently validate where upgrade packages are download from when using the autoupgrade feature.

| CVE-2022-36522 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Aug 26, 2022 | Mikrotik RouterOs through stable v6.48.3 was discovered to contain an assertion failure in the component /advanced-tools/nova/bin/netwatch. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted packet. |
| CVE-2021-36614 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | May 11, 2022 | Mikrotik RouterOs before stable 6.48.2 suffers from a memory corruption vulnerability in the tr069-client process. An authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service (NULL pointer dereference). |
| CVE-2021-36613 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | May 11, 2022 | Mikrotik RouterOs before stable 6.48.2 suffers from a memory corruption vulnerability in the ptp process. An authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service (NULL pointer dereference). |
| CVE-2020-20262 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Jul 21, 2021 | Mikrotik RouterOs before 6.47 (stable tree) suffers from an assertion failure vulnerability in the /ram/pckg/security/nova/bin/ipsec process. An authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service due to an assertion failure via a crafted packet. |
| CVE-2020-20249 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Jul 19, 2021 | Mikrotik RouterOs before stable 6.47 suffers from a memory corruption vulnerability in the resolver process. By sending a crafted packet, an authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service. |
| CVE-2020-20230 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Jul 19, 2021 | Mikrotik RouterOs before stable 6.47 suffers from an uncontrolled resource consumption in the sshd process. An authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service due to overloading the systems CPU. |
| CVE-2020-20231 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Jul 14, 2021 | Mikrotik RouterOs through stable version 6.48.3 suffers from a memory corruption vulnerability in the /nova/bin/detnet process. An authenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service (NULL pointer dereference). |
