CVE-2022-41017Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unbounded VPN formatting

Published Jan 26, 2023 · Updated Nov 4, 2025

Stack-based buffer overflow in Siretta QUARTZ-GOLD G5.0.1.5-210720-141020 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands. The DetranCLI VPN-basic handler passes attacker-controlled name, server, username, password, and local-IP fields to sprintf into a 256-byte stack buffer without bounds checking. Administrative CLI access is required, and a crafted command can overwrite the stack and execute arbitrary commands on the router.
