CVE-2024-27662Public exploit

Service crash via null-pointer dereference

Published Feb 29, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Null-pointer dereference in D-Link DIR-823 Firmware 1.0.2B05 allows attackers to interrupt router service via crafted input. The sub_4110f4 function dereferences a null pointer while processing the crafted input; the disclosure does not identify its field or protocol. Exploitation requires no privileges or user interaction but is limited to an adjacent network, and the documented impact is a service crash.
