What is CVE-2025-44650?

In specific versions of the Netgear R7000 and EAX80, a misconfiguration in the bftpd.conf file leads to a vulnerability where the USERLIMIT_GLOBAL option is set to 0. This allows for unlimited user connections, making the system susceptible to Denial of Service attacks. When numerous users connect simultaneously, server resources can be overwhelmed, resulting in rendered services inaccessible. It's crucial for users to review their configurations and apply necessary updates to mitigate potential risks.
