What is CVE-2023-37316?

The vulnerability in D-Link DAP-2622 routers arises from a stack-based buffer overflow occurring within the DDP service due to inadequate validation of user-supplied input lengths. As a result, network-adjacent attackers can manipulate this flaw to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on affected installations.
