DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in Edimax BR-6478AC V2 1.23. The impacted element is the function formWlSiteSurvey of the file /goform/formWlSiteSurvey of the component POST Request Handler. The manipulation of the argument selSSID leads to buffer overflow. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. 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/heap buffer overflow in the Edimax BR-6478AC V2 wireless router (firmware 1.23) lets an authenticated attacker corrupt memory by sending an oversized selSSID parameter to the formWlSiteSurvey handler under /goform/, enabling denial of service and potentially arbitrary code execution on the device. Publicly available exploit code exists, but no public exploit identified at time of analysis as actively used in attacks (not in CISA KEV); the vendor was notified and did not respond, leaving devices unpatched. CVSS 4.0 base score is 7.4 reflecting network reachability of the management interface combined with required low-privilege authentication.

Technical ContextAI

The Edimax BR-6478AC V2 is a consumer/SOHO AC1200 dual-band wireless router whose web management interface exposes /goform/* CGI-style handlers implemented in the embedded HTTP daemon. The formWlSiteSurvey endpoint handles wireless site-survey POST submissions and copies the user-supplied selSSID argument into a fixed-size stack or heap buffer without bounds validation, the classic CWE-120 'Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input' pattern. On MIPS/ARM-based embedded routers like this one, such overflows commonly overwrite saved return addresses or adjacent control structures in the httpd process, which typically runs as root with no ASLR, no stack canaries, and no NX, making memory corruption highly exploitable. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:edimax:br-6478ac_v2:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covering firmware 1.23 per the EUVD record.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - Edimax did not respond to the disclosure, so administrators must rely on compensating controls. Restrict access to the router's web management interface to trusted LAN hosts only and disable any remote/WAN-side administration feature so the /goform/formWlSiteSurvey endpoint cannot be reached from the internet; this is the highest-leverage control given the bug requires reaching the HTTP handler. Change any default or weak administrative passwords to raise the PR:L authentication barrier, and place the device behind a segmented VLAN where untrusted client devices cannot send arbitrary POSTs to its management IP, accepting the trade-off that legitimate roaming clients triggering site surveys from the UI must come from that trusted segment. Monitor https://vuldb.com/vuln/372600 and https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-12806 for any future vendor firmware update; if Edimax remains unresponsive, plan for hardware replacement with a supported model as the durable remediation.
