Authenticated web-service crash via unbounded submit-url copy
Published Feb 21, 2026 · Updated Feb 21, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DWR-M960 1.01.07 allows remote authenticated users to crash its web service via an HTTP request. The formDosCfg handler calls strcpy in sub_46385C to copy the unbounded submit-url value into the fixed global wizard_htm buffer. A valid low-privilege session and the save_apply parameter reach the faulty copy; the demonstrated result is a web-server crash that leaves the device unreachable.
