MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Authenticated user access required to UTT HiPER 1250GW firmware versions up to 3.2.7-210907-180535. Attacker must send crafted request to /goform/setSysAdm endpoint with oversized GroupName parameter to trigger buffer overflow via strcpy(). |
| Impact | This vulnerability presents significant real-world risk despite requiring low-privilege authentication (PR:L). The CVSS base score of 8.8 reflects high impact across all three security properties (C:H/I:H/A:H) with network accessibility (AV:N) and low attack complexity (AC:L). The existence of a public exploit (E:P) on GitHub dramatically increases the exploitation likelihood, as attackers can readily weaponize the proof-of-concept code. The attack requires only authenticated access to the web interface, which in many deployments uses default or weak credentials. The combination of network-accessible attack vector, publicly available exploit code, and the criticality of gateway devices in network infrastructure makes this a genuine priority for remediation. Organizations using UTT HiPER 1250GW devices should treat this as high-priority, especially if these devices are exposed to untrusted users or networks. The reliability rating (RC:R) indicates the technical details are well-understood and reproducible. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has obtained low-privilege credentials to the router's web interface (through credential stuffing, default passwords, or social engineering) authenticates to the device over the network. The attacker then sends a specially crafted HTTP request to the /goform/setSysAdm endpoint with an oversized GroupName parameter exceeding the buffer size, following the publicly available proof-of-concept on GitHub. The strcpy function copies this malicious input without bounds checking, overwriting the stack and hijacking program execution to attacker-controlled shellcode, granting complete control over the router and potentially enabling lateral movement into the protected network. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 20, 2026
Remote code execution in UTT HiPER 1250GW firmware versions up to 3.2.7 allows authenticated attackers to overflow a buffer in the /goform/setSysAdm function via a malicious GroupName parameter. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, and no patch is currently available. An attacker with valid credentials can achieve complete system compromise including code execution, data theft, and denial of service.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the UTT HiPER 1250GW wireless router through firmware version 3.2.7-210907-180535. The vulnerability is located in the strcpy function within the /goform/setSysAdm endpoint, where the GroupName parameter is not properly validated before being copied to a fixed-size buffer. An authenticated attacker can exploit this remotely to achieve arbitrary code execution with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available on GitHub, significantly lowering the barrier to exploitation.
RemediationAI
Contact UTT directly to obtain patched firmware versions newer than 3.2.7-210907-180535, as no specific patch version has been publicly documented in the available references (RL:X indicates remediation level unavailable at time of disclosure). Until firmware updates can be applied, implement defense-in-depth measures: restrict administrative interface access to trusted IP ranges only via firewall rules, enforce strong authentication credentials replacing any defaults, disable remote administration if not required, and place affected devices behind additional network segmentation. Monitor logs for repeated failed authentication attempts or suspicious activity targeting /goform/ endpoints. Consider replacing affected devices with alternative products if vendor support and patching is unavailable. Organizations should verify directly with UTT (the vendor) regarding availability of security updates and end-of-life status for this product model.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability affects the UTT HiPER 1250GW (cpe:2.3:a:utt:hiper_1250gw:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), an enterprise-grade wireless gateway router. The root cause is CWE-120 (Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input), specifically involving the unsafe strcpy function in C/C++ code. The /goform/setSysAdm endpoint, commonly used for system administration configuration in embedded web interfaces, fails to validate the length of the GroupName parameter before copying it to a stack-allocated buffer. This classic stack-based buffer overflow can overwrite adjacent memory including return addresses, enabling control flow hijacking and arbitrary code execution in the context of the web server process, which typically runs with elevated privileges on embedded devices.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was identified in UTT HiPER 1250GW up to 3.2.7-210907-180535. Affected is the function strcpy of the file /goform/setSysAdm. Such manipulation of the argument GroupName leads to buffer overflow. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used.
Executive ViewAI
A critical remote code execution vulnerability affecting UTT HiPER 1250GW wireless routers poses an immediate threat to organizational network security. With public exploits readily available and no patch currently available, any organization using this device model is at elevated risk of unauthorized system compromise and potential lateral network movement.
Disable the /goform/setSysAdm endpoint at the firewall or WAF level if possible; restrict administrative access to the device to specific trusted IP ranges only; implement network segmentation to isolate router management traffic; disable remote administrative access and enforce local-only administration; monitor device logs for exploitation attempts; consider replacing the device with an alternative vendor solution that receives active security updates.
