CVE-2026-7856Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated memory corruption via unchecked Name copy

Published May 5, 2026 · Updated May 5, 2026

Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8100 16.07.26A1 allows remote authenticated users to corrupt memory through the Name parameter. The /url_member.asp add operation copies an overly long Name value into a fixed-size stack buffer without validating its length. Administrative access is required; the overflow can crash the management process or corrupt memory, while code execution is not demonstrated.
