CVE-2023-37319

Root code execution via DDP IPv6 buffer overflow

Published May 3, 2024 · Updated Sep 18, 2024

Stack-based buffer overflow in the DDP service of D-Link DAP-2622 1.00 and earlier allows network-adjacent attackers to execute root code. The Set IPv6 Address operation copies length-unchecked user-supplied data into a fixed-length stack buffer. Authentication is not required; access to the device from an adjacent network is sufficient for complete device compromise.
