Local memory corruption via oversized ARP fields
Published Nov 13, 2025 · Updated Jul 5, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Linksys E1200 v2 firmware 2.0.11.001 allows local users to corrupt memory through crafted ARP entries. The get_mac_from_ip and get_ip_from_mac functions in libshared.so parse ARP fields with %100s conversions into 50-byte stack buffers. Exploitation requires control of /proc/net/arp or local filesystem write access; the published proof of concept targets memory corruption, not code execution.
