Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-119 | The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data. |
| CWE-120 | The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability exists in the D-Link DIR-605L device, specifically in the function formAdvNetwork within the POST Request Handler component. It occurs when the argument curTime is manipulated, leading to a buffer overflow condition. This buffer overflow can be exploited remotely.
The vulnerability affects only versions of the product that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to a buffer overflow, which may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code remotely on the affected device.
Given the high CVSS scores (up to 9.0 in version 2.0), the impact includes potential full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device.
Since the device is no longer supported, patches or fixes are unlikely, increasing the risk if the device remains in use.
