توجد ثغرة أمنية في وحدات 802.11 الخاصة بجهاز TP-Link Archer BE400 قد تؤدي إلى حالة رفض الخدمة (DoS). يمكن لمهاجم قريب إحداث إعادة تشغيل للجهاز من خلال استغلال عملية إزالة مرجعية مؤشر فارغ.

The server lacks thread safety and can be crashed by anomalous data sent by an anonymous user from a remote network. This crash causes the FTP service to become unavailable, affecting all users and processes that rely on it for file transfers. If the crash occurs during file upload or download, it could lead to incomplete file transfers, potentially corrupting data. The repeated crash might also affect the stability of the underlying system, especially if it leads to resource leaks or affects other services.

The issue arises when an attacker sends a single malformed IEEE 802.15.4 (Zigbee) frame, causing the TRÅDFRI bulb to blink. If the same frame is replayed multiple times, the bulb performs a factory reset, resulting in the loss of configuration information about the Zigbee network and current brightness level. After this attack, all lights are on with full brightness, and a user cannot control the bulbs with either the IKEA Home Smart app or the TRÅDFRI remote control. The malformed Zigbee frame is an unauthenticated broadcast message, which means all vulnerable devices within radio range are affected.

A single malformed IEEE 802.15.4 (Zigbee) frame can make the TRÅDFRI gateway unresponsive. This results in connected lighting being unable to be controlled with the IKEA Home Smart app and TRÅDFRI remote control. The issue is caused by an unauthenticated broadcast message, affecting all vulnerable devices within radio range.
