MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Execution, Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Impact | Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution, denial of service, or privilege escalation depending on the memory layout and protections in place. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (HIGH), this represents a significant risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker sends an oversized input to a vulnerable function, overwriting the return address on the stack to redirect execution to attacker-controlled shellcode. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 15, 2026
A vulnerability was determined in Linksys RE6500, RE6250, RE6300, RE6350, RE7000 and RE9000 1.0.013.001/1.0.04.001/1.0.04.002/1.1.05.003/1.2.07.001. Affected by this issue is the function RE2000v2Repeater_get_wireless_clientlist_setClientsName of the file mod_form.so. Executing manipulation of the argument clientsname_0 can lead to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Lifecycle Timeline
2Executive ViewAI
A remotely exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability affects Linksys range extenders (RE6500, RE6250, RE6300, RE6350, RE7000, RE9000) with publicly available exploit code and no vendor patch. Organizations using these devices face immediate risk of unauthorized access and network compromise, particularly concerning for remote workers and branch offices relying on these extenders for connectivity.
Network segmentation: isolate extenders to separate VLAN with restricted east-west traffic; Disable remote management and UPnP; Implement firewall rules restricting administrative access to extenders; Monitor for suspicious wireless client connections and configuration changes; Deploy network IDS/IPS rules to detect buffer overflow exploitation patterns; Consider WAF or reverse proxy controls if extenders are internet-facing; Regular backup of network configuration to enable rapid recovery; Evaluate replacement with alternative vendor solutions pending patch availability.

Attack Technique
A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
