Stack-Based Buffer Overflow in D-Link DAP-1520 Devices

CVE-2020-15892

What is CVE-2020-15892?

The D-Link DAP-1520 devices are vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow due to improper validation of user input on the web interface login page. Specifically, the vulnerability arises when the system allows a login request with a tampered password input exceeding the intended length. The client-side validation can be bypassed by an attacker, enabling them to manipulate the parameters of the login request. This could lead to remote code execution or unauthorized access if successful. Other parameters, such as html_response_page and log_user, are also susceptible to similar exploitation. Ensuring device firmware is updated can mitigate potential risks.
