Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in UTT HiPER 1200GW up to 2.5.3-170306. This impacts the function strcpy of the file /goform/formFireWall. This manipulation of the argument Profile causes stack-based buffer overflow. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been published and may be used.
AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in UTT HiPER 1200GW routers (firmware up to 2.5.3-170306) allows authenticated remote attackers to corrupt memory via the Profile parameter in the /goform/formFireWall endpoint, where unsafe strcpy usage processes the input. Publicly available exploit code exists, increasing the realistic risk of attempted compromise against exposed management interfaces. No CISA KEV listing has been published, so exploitation is not yet confirmed active in the wild.
Technical ContextAI
The affected product (cpe:2.3:a:utt:hiper_1200gw) is a small/medium business router from UTT Technologies whose web administration interface exposes /goform/* handlers - a common pattern in embedded Boa/GoAhead-style HTTP servers used in SOHO routers. The root cause maps to CWE-121 (stack-based buffer overflow): the Profile argument is passed directly to strcpy() with no length validation, so any input longer than the fixed destination buffer overwrites adjacent stack memory, including saved return addresses. On MIPS/ARM embedded firmware that typically lacks modern mitigations (no ASLR, no stack canaries, often no NX), this class of bug routinely allows arbitrary code execution via ROP or shellcode injection.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - UTT has not published an advisory or fixed firmware version in the references provided, so defenders should monitor https://www.utt.com.cn for firmware later than 2.5.3-170306. As compensating controls, restrict access to the router web management interface (/goform/formFireWall) to a trusted management VLAN or specific admin source IPs via ACL, and disable WAN-side administration entirely if enabled (trade-off: remote admin convenience is lost). Enforce strong, unique administrator credentials and rotate them, since the PR:L requirement means credential compromise is the precondition for exploitation. As a higher-impact fallback, replace the device with a vendor-supported router if UTT does not publish a fix, since SOHO firmware bugs of this class are rarely patched promptly.
