Lifecycle Timeline
3Description
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in D-Link DI-8003 16.07.26A1 due to improper handling of the custom_error parameter in the /user.asp endpoint.
Analysis
Buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8003 router firmware 16.07.26A1 enables unauthenticated remote denial-of-service via malformed custom_error parameter to /user.asp endpoint. Attackers can crash device remotely without credentials by exploiting stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121). CVSS 7.5 reflects network-accessible, low-complexity attack requiring no user interaction. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; low observed exploitation activity (EPSS 0.02%).
Technical Context
Stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) triggered by unbounded input to custom_error parameter in /user.asp handler. Firmware version 16.07.26A1 lacks input validation, allowing oversized data to overwrite stack memory. Network vector (AV:N) with no authentication requirement (PR:N) enables remote exploitation targeting availability (A:H).
Affected Products
D-Link DI-8003 router, firmware version 16.07.26A1. Vendor: D-Link. Specific CPE unavailable in authoritative sources.
Remediation
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. D-Link has not published firmware updates addressing CVE-2025-50659 for DI-8003 16.07.26A1 per official security bulletin at https://www.dlink.com/en/security-bulletin/. Organizations should immediately isolate affected DI-8003 devices from untrusted networks, restrict management interface access via firewall rules permitting only trusted IP ranges, and disable remote administration features. Monitor D-Link security advisories for forthcoming patches. Consider hardware replacement if device reaches end-of-life status without vendor support. Implement network segmentation to limit blast radius of potential DoS attacks.
