CVE-2024-11960Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unchecked curTime sprintf

Published Nov 28, 2024 · Updated Nov 29, 2024

Buffer overflow in D-Link DIR-605L 2.13B01 allows remote authenticated users to execute code through a crafted curTime value. The formSetPortTr handler passes the POST parameter through sprintf into the v15 buffer without checking its length. Access to the router's authenticated web interface is required, and exploitation executes code in the firmware process or crashes it.
