MODERATORS
They are presumably talking about CovertNetwork-1658 and the reason there's no list of routers is because no one has publicly described the vulnerability that is being leveraged.
My guess is that the vulnerability is present on most of their routers. I'm basing that opinion on the fact that previous CVEs issues against TP-LINK have impacted their most popular product lines like Archer and Deco.
It's possible that this is related to CVE-2024-21833 which was open in January of 2024, update in July of 2024, then updated again in late November of 2024.
