How the Exploit Works
The exploit takes advantage of a buffer overflow vulnerability in the function fromadvsetlanip. The function is used to set the LAN IP address of the device. However, the function does not properly validate the length of the lanMask argument. An attacker can remotely send a specially crafted request with an oversized lanMask argument. The oversized argument is then copied into a fixed-size buffer, causing the buffer to overflow, which could lead to arbitrary code execution or cause the system to crash.
Conceptual Example Code
Here is a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited using an HTTP request:
POST /goform/AdvSetLanip HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
lanMask=256.256.256.256In this example, the attacker sends a POST request with an oversized lanMask value. This oversized value overflows the buffer, leading to the potential execution of malicious code.
Mitigation
Users are urged to apply the vendor-provided patch as soon as possible. If the patch cannot be applied immediately, users should consider using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) as a temporary mitigation measure to detect and block attempts to exploit this vulnerability.
