What to do now

  1. Check your ASUSTOR ADM version and confirm you are running ASUSTOR ADM 3.1.0.RFQ3.
  2. Identify whether the photo gallery feature is enabled and whether the photo-gallery/api/album/tree_lists endpoint is reachable from outside your network (the internet or any exposed port).
  3. If you have ASUSTOR ADM 3.1.0.RFQ3, look for an ADM update that addresses CVE-2018-11511; no fixed version is known from the available information, so contact ASUSTOR support or your managed hosting/IT vendor for the specific mitigation.
  4. If the endpoint is reachable externally and you cannot update immediately, restrict access so it is not reachable from the internet (block the exposed service/port or remove external access to the photo gallery/API).
  5. Review photo gallery/API access logs for unusual requests to the tree list API paths, and monitor for continued probing attempts.
