Authenticated Boa crash via unchecked curTime formatting
Published Jul 20, 2025 · Updated Jul 21, 2025
Stack overflow in the DIR-513 1.10 Boa Webserver allows remote authenticated users to crash the Boa process with a crafted request. formSetWanNonLogin passes the unbounded curTime POST value to sprintf, which writes into a fixed-size stack buffer and can overwrite the return address. Low-privilege web access is required; return-address overwrite is documented, but reliable code execution has not been demonstrated.
