Unauthenticated code execution via stack buffer overflow
Published Jul 21, 2025 · Updated Jul 21, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in Askey RTF8207W and RTF8217 before R82XXR250718 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. TWCERT/CC has not disclosed the affected component, request field, or copying operation that overruns the stack buffer. No authentication or user interaction is required; successful exploitation can redirect execution and compromise the gateway.
