Authenticated service crash via unbounded mx formatting
Published Jul 20, 2025 · Updated Jul 21, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8100 1.0 jhttpd allows remote authenticated users to crash the service through an HTTP request. The ddns_asp handler passes the unbounded mx parameter to sprintf while constructing opt=add data in a fixed stack buffer. A valid management-session cookie is required, and the public proof of concept demonstrates a jhttpd segmentation fault rather than code execution.
