A router vulnerability is a security flaw in a network router’s software or configuration. Such flaws permit unauthorized access, data interception, or manipulation of network traffic by malicious actors. In the context of digital assets, exploiting these vulnerabilities can lead to compromised user wallets, phishing attacks, or unauthorized access to sensitive blockchain-related data. These weaknesses pose direct risks to the security and integrity of digital asset transactions and holdings.
