Authenticated code execution via unbounded QoS rule name
Published Jul 6, 2023 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in Milesight UR32L 32.3.0.5 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via an HTTP request. Within vtysh_ubus, set_qos passes the unbounded rule_name JSON string to sprintf when formatting a negated traffic-rule command into vtysh_command_buffer. High-privilege access to the router's HTTP management interface is required; an overlong value can overwrite the stack, crash the process, or enable code execution.
