Authenticated web-server crash via unbounded submit-url copy
Published Apr 28, 2026 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DIR-825M 1.1.12 allows remote authenticated users to crash the web server via crafted HTTP. The sub_414BA8 function in /boafrm/formWanConfigSetup passes the untrusted submit-url value to strcpy, which copies it into a fixed-size stack buffer without a length check. Published metrics require low-privileged access, despite the reproducer's unauthenticated claim; demonstrated impact is a web-server crash.
