NetGear Armor and Western Digital NAS vulnerabilities on RAX 50
My NetGear Armor is continuously detecting vulnerabilities on my Western Digital Mycloud drive even though it is not connected to the Internet (software is out of life). It doesn't seem to detect any...
Same problem here with my WD MyCloud 6TB. Has detected vulnerabilities since day one of having Armor. I also have the latest MyCloud firmware: 5.21.10, and cloud access is disabled on MyCloud.
Not sure if they are false positives or are unaddressed vulnerabilities by WD.
Thanks for the response. At least I'm not the only one with this situation.
Perhaps NETGEAR Armor is detecting the existence of a default username/password for the WD My Cloud device, even if cloud access is disabled?
It finds >139 vulnerabilities and I'm not using default authentication
A quick search on the ISC2 vulnerability database shows a few critical vulnerabilities for Western Digital Mycloud. Armor may be detecting indicators related to these vulnerabilities if present on your service. It might be worth following upon the CVEs for the vendor's mitigation guidance.
