Network-reachable HNAP endpoint (AV:N) with low complexity (AC:L) but requires an authenticated/privileged session per PR:L; buffer overflow enables full compromise, so C/I/A all High, scope unchanged.

A security flaw has been discovered in D-Link DIR-823G 1.0.2B05_20181207. The impacted element is the function strcpy of the file /HNAP1/SetStaticRouteSettings of the component HNAP1. The manipulation of the argument PAddress/SubnetMask/Gateway results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can be launched remotely.

AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in the D-Link DIR-823G router (firmware 1.0.2B05_20181207) lets a remote attacker corrupt stack memory via the HNAP1 SetStaticRouteSettings handler. The vulnerable strcpy call copies attacker-supplied PAddress, SubnetMask, and Gateway values without bounds checking, enabling denial of service and potential code execution on the device. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the ability to reach the router's HNAP1 web interface and send a SetStaticRouteSettings request; the CVSS PR:L indicates a privilege/authentication requirement, so the realistic prerequisite is a valid administrative session or working credentials (default or weak credentials suffice on many SOHO units). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N, all impacts High) scores 9.4 and reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw that nonetheless requires some privilege (PR:L) - consistent with HNAP endpoints that typically need authentication or at least a valid session. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the DIR-823G is end-of-life and D-Link is unlikely to issue firmware, so the primary recommendation is to replace the device with a currently supported model. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all DIR-823G routers in your network and assess exposure to internet-facing HNAP1 traffic; disable HNAP1 protocol access if operationally feasible and monitor device logs for exploitation attempts given the public availability of exploit code. …
