DescriptionCVE.org

Sony XAV-9500ES RTSP SETUP Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Sony XAV-9500ES devices. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the handling of SETUP RTSP packets. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the device. Was ZDI-CAN-29042.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Sony XAV-9500ES car media receivers is achievable via a classic buffer overflow in the device's RTSP server, exploitable by unauthenticated network-adjacent attackers without user interaction. Sending a crafted RTSP SETUP packet with an oversized field overflows a fixed-length buffer, corrupting memory and enabling arbitrary code execution in the device's context. …
