DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in D-Link DIR-822A A_101. Affected is the function tunnel_set_params of the component L2TP Control Message Parser. Such manipulation leads to out-of-bounds write. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds write in D-Link DIR-822A firmware A_101 allows network-reachable authenticated attackers to corrupt memory and likely achieve remote code execution by sending a crafted L2TP control message with a malformed Host Name AVP to the vulnerable tunnel_set_params function. A public proof-of-concept demonstrating the specific Host Name AVP overflow has been published on Notion, substantially lowering the exploitation barrier. …
