AI Insight

LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.

Stack overflow in TP-Link TL-WDR7660's wlanTimerRuleJsonToBin function via a long 'name' parameter leads to crash or potential RCE.

Vulnerability

The wlanTimerRuleJsonToBin function in TP-Link TL-WDR7660 firmware version 1.0 does not validate the length of the name parameter before copying it to a fixed-size stack buffer, causing a stack overflow. [1]

Exploitation

An attacker can send a crafted HTTP POST request to the device's management interface with an excessively long name value in the time_switch JSON data, triggering the overflow. No authentication is required if the interface is exposed. [1]

Impact

Successful exploitation causes the stack to overflow, potentially crashing the device or allowing arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the process (likely root). [1]

Mitigation

No official patch has been released as of the publication date. Users should restrict network access to the management interface or upgrade to a later firmware version if available. [1]
