DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in Edimax BR-6675nD 1.12. The impacted element is the function formWlSiteSurvey of the file /goform/formWlSiteSurvey of the component POST Request Handler. This manipulation of the argument selSSID causes buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated 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.

AnalysisAI

Stack/heap buffer overflow in the Edimax BR-6675nD 1.12 wireless router allows authenticated remote attackers to corrupt memory by sending a crafted POST request with an oversized selSSID parameter to /goform/formWlSiteSurvey, potentially achieving code execution on the device. Publicly available exploit code exists (disclosed by VulDB), and the vendor was contacted early but did not respond, leaving the device without an official fix. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Reach router HTTP admin interface
Delivery
Authenticate with valid/default credentials
Exploit
Send POST to /goform/formWlSiteSurvey with oversized selSSID
Execution
Overflow fixed-size buffer in handler
Persist
Hijack control flow on embedded OS
Impact
Execute attacker code as web service user (typically root)

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Attacker must have network reachability to the router's HTTP administrative interface (LAN by default; WAN only if Remote Management is enabled) and must be able to authenticate to the admin panel - the CVSS PR:L flag indicates valid low-privilege credentials are required to reach the vulnerable /goform/formWlSiteSurvey handler. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Mixed signals weigh against treating this as a top-priority issue despite the 7.4 CVSS-v4.0 score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has obtained or reused router admin credentials (e.g., factory defaults, credential stuffing, or a foothold on the LAN) sends a POST request to /goform/formWlSiteSurvey with an over-long selSSID value, overflowing the fixed-size buffer in the form handler. Publicly available exploit code exists, lowering the barrier to weaponization for a targeted attacker; successful exploitation can crash the router (denial of service) or, with reliable shellcode tuned to the firmware's MIPS/ARM layout, yield code execution as the web server process - typically root on embedded routers.
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - Edimax did not respond to the disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
