CVE-2023-36952Network attack vector

Unauthenticated memory corruption via pingIp stack overflow

Published Oct 16, 2023 · Updated Sep 16, 2024

Stack overflow in TOTOLINK CP300+ 5.2cu.7594_B20200910 allows remote attackers to corrupt memory via a crafted pingIp value. A crafted pingIp value causes setDiagnosisCfg to overrun a stack buffer; the responsible copy operation has not been published. The network path requires no privileges or user interaction; the public record does not establish whether exploitation crashes the service or enables code execution.
