CVE-2023-35754

Root code execution via unchecked DDP URL copy

Published May 3, 2024 · Updated Sep 18, 2024

Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DAP-2622 firmware 1.00 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute code as root. The DDP Set AG Profile handler copies a user-controlled NMS URL into a fixed-length stack buffer without validating its length. No authentication is required, but the attacker must reach the DDP service from an adjacent network; successful exploitation fully controls the device.
