DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in Shibby Tomato up to 1.28.0000. Affected is the function getupsvar of the file www/apcupsd/tomatodata.cgi of the component apcupsd. This manipulation of the argument Field causes stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. This project is superseded by FreshTomato.

AnalysisAI

Remote authenticated command execution is possible in Shibby Tomato router firmware through version 1.28.0000, where the getupsvar function in the apcupsd CGI handler (www/apcupsd/tomatodata.cgi) fails to bound the Field argument, producing a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121). A logged-in user can send a crafted request to corrupt the stack and hijack control flow with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the device. …
