Ameeba Chat is built on encrypted identity, not personal profiles.
Message, call, share files, and coordinate with identities kept separate.
- • Encrypted identity
- • Ameeba Chat authenticates access
- • Aliases and categories
- • End-to-end encrypted chat, calls, and files
- • Secure notes for sensitive information
Private communication, rethought.
Product | Affected Versions
Tenda AC15 | v15.03.05.19_multi_TD01
How the Exploit Works
The exploit works by an attacker sending a specially crafted request with an oversized “list” parameter to the “fromSetIpMacBind” function. The function fails to properly validate the length of the input, leading to a stack overflow. This overflow could potentially corrupt the system’s memory, allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code or disrupt the system’s normal operations.
Conceptual Example Code
Here’s a conceptual example that demonstrates how the vulnerability might be exploited:
POST /fromSetIpMacBind HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
list=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIn this example, the “list” parameter contains an excessively long string of “A” characters, which could potentially trigger the stack overflow.
Mitigation
Users of the affected Tenda AC15 v15.03.05.19_multi_TD01 are advised to apply the patch provided by the vendor as soon as possible. If the patch cannot be applied immediately, utilizing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can be considered as a temporary mitigation measure.
