Authenticated router compromise via oversized SSID parameter
Published Sep 30, 2024 · Updated Sep 30, 2024
Stack overflow in TP-Link TL-WR941ND V6 allows remote authenticated users on an adjacent network to compromise the router. Processing an oversized ssid value for /userRpm/popupSiteSurveyRpm.htm overruns a stack buffer; the public record does not identify the copying function. Low-privileged management access is required, and successful exploitation can disclose or alter data and interrupt router service.
