CVE-2022-35874Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Memory corruption via Wi-Fi SSID format string

Published Oct 25, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025

Format string injection in Abode Systems, Inc. iota All-In-One Security Kit 6.9X and 6.9Z allows remote attackers to crash the hub. The do_test_wifiap function builds a Wi-Fi command from ssid or ssid_hex, then passes that command directly as the format argument to log. The network path requires no credentials or user interaction; a crafted configuration value followed by testWifiAP can corrupt memory and crash the hub.
