Remote code execution via Content-Length overflow
Published Aug 3, 2024 · Updated Aug 5, 2024
Stack-based buffer overflow in CC8160 VVTK-0100d httpd allows remote authenticated users to execute code via a crafted Content-Length header. The httpd read function trusts the attacker-controlled Content-Length value when copying request data into a fixed-size stack buffer, allowing the buffer to be overwritten. A valid low-privilege session is required; successful exploitation can execute code or crash the end-of-life camera.
