Authenticated code execution via unchecked parameter copy
Published Jul 8, 2024 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in Realtek rtl819x Jungle SDK 3.4.11 allows remote authenticated users to execute code via network requests. The boa set_RadvdPrefixParam function copies an unbounded indexed if6to4 request parameter with strcpy into a fixed field in the stack-resident radvdCfgParam structure. Administrative web credentials and a preparatory radvd.htm request are required; successful exploitation crashes boa and enables arbitrary code execution on the router.
