CVE-2018-11116 describes an access control vulnerability in OpenWrt's rpcd, allowing remote authenticated users to invoke arbitrary methods, such as those in the file, log, or service namespaces, that should have been restricted to specific users. This could lead to remote information disclosure or code execution. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (High), the vulnerability is easily exploitable over the network with low privileges and no user interaction, posing a significant risk to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Despite its high severity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion, and the developer disputes it as a vulnerability.
