Technical details
A NULL pointer dereference (CWE-476) exists in QNAP File Station 6. The vulnerability is reachable over the network but requires the attacker to possess valid user credentials (low privileges). By sending a specifically crafted request that triggers the NULL pointer dereference, an attacker can cause the application to crash, resulting in a denial-of-service.
