CVE-2022-24026Public exploit

Code execution via unchecked GetValue buffer copy

Published Aug 5, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025

Buffer overflow in GetValue on TCL LinkHub Mesh Wi-Fi MS1G_00_01.00_14 allows remote attackers to execute code via crafted configuration data. GetValue passes no destination size to cfms_mib_proc_handle, which copies up to 0x5dc bytes of flash configuration data into a caller-provided buffer. Access to the adjacent network and protobuf configuration interface is required; exploitation overwrites a return address in telnet_ate_monitor.
