Authenticated service interruption via oversized PPTP settings
Published May 27, 2026 · Updated May 27, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in the HiPER 1200GW Web Management Interface 2.5.3-170306 allows remote authenticated users to crash the router. The /goform/formPptpClientConfig handler copies an oversized EncryptionMode value into a fixed stack destination at offset 96 without enforcing its capacity. Digest-authenticated management access is required; the demonstrated request corrupts stack memory and interrupts device service, while code execution remains unverified.
