Adjacent LAN access required (AV:A), low complexity, requires low-privilege web credentials on the phone (PR:L), no user interaction, and stack overflow in firmware-upgrade handler yields full C/I/A impact on the device.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability has been found in Yealink SIP-T46U 108.86.0.118. This affects the function mod_upgrade.SparePartsUpload of the file /api/upgrade/accupgradebychunk of the component Firmware Chunk Upload handler. Such manipulation of the argument uid leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can only be initiated within the local network. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in the Yealink SIP-T46U IP phone (firmware 108.86.0.118) allows adjacent-network attackers with low-privilege credentials to corrupt memory via the uid parameter of the /api/upgrade/accupgradebychunk firmware chunk upload endpoint. Publicly available exploit code exists and the vendor did not respond to coordinated disclosure, raising the practical risk despite the adjacent-only attack vector. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Attacker must be on the same local/adjacent network segment as the target phone (CVSS AV:A - not reachable from the public internet by default) and must possess low-privileged credentials to the phone's web management interface (PR:L), so the firmware-upgrade API at /api/upgrade/accupgradebychunk can be invoked. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mixed but lean toward meaningful risk for VoIP-heavy enterprise environments. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has gained a foothold on the corporate LAN - for example via a compromised workstation, rogue Wi-Fi client, or malicious insider - authenticates to a Yealink SIP-T46U phone's web API with low-privilege credentials (often default or weak on unmanaged deployments) and issues a crafted POST to /api/upgrade/accupgradebychunk with an oversized uid parameter. The publicly available exploit archive (T46U_mod_upgrade_SparePartsUpload_stack_overflow.zip) demonstrates the buffer overflow, enabling the attacker to crash the phone or potentially execute arbitrary code on the embedded firmware, turning the device into a pivot point for eavesdropping on SIP calls or further lateral movement. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - Yealink did not respond to the reporter's disclosure attempts. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Inventory all Yealink SIP-T46U devices, identify firmware versions, and disable remote firmware upgrade functionality where operationally feasible; restrict network access to firmware update endpoints via firewall policy. …
