Authenticated router crash via unbounded webpage copy
Published May 10, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DIR-619L Firmware 2.06B1 allows remote authenticated users to crash the router via formWPS requests. The formWPS handler in /bin/boa copies the webpage parameter with strcpy into a global buffer without a length check, then passes it to sprintf. Web-interface authentication is required; an oversized POST request crashes the router, with no reported data disclosure or modification.
