Arris home routers like the SBG10 rate D in our analysis due to aging hardware, documented CVE history including critical RCE vulnerabilities, and limited security features. Arris cable modems remain popular, but their combo modem/router gateway units tend to have weak security features. If you are using an Arris gateway for routing, consider using it only as a cable modem and adding a dedicated security-focused router.
Bottom line: No national security concern. D-grade due to CVE history and aging hardware. Use as modem only and add your own router.
