What is CVE-2017-8416?

A vulnerability exists in D-Link DCS-1100 and DCS-1130 devices due to an unbounded buffer copy operation in a custom daemon listening on UDP port 5978. This daemon processes broadcast packets which can be sent by any device, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the vulnerable device. By exploiting this flaw, attackers can manipulate the stack pointer and take control of the device by sending a specially crafted UDP packet, enabling unauthorized command execution without proper authentication.
