Authenticated code execution via unchecked counts parameter
Published Oct 7, 2025 · Updated Oct 7, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in PLANET WGR-500 1.3411b190912 allows remote authenticated users to execute code via crafted HTTP requests. The formPingCmd handler passes the unbounded counts parameter to sprintf while building a ping command in a 100-byte stack buffer. Low-privilege web-interface access is required; successful exploitation corrupts the stack and enables arbitrary code execution on the router.
